I was researching the Piper Enforcer some time ago and came agross some info on a P-51 with Ramjets on the wing tips, not the one QArt has got here but another one with colour pics that were taken in the 70’s, IIRC it’s in a museum somewhere in the US that has open air storage and rust coloured hills (Mohave desert?). I’ve tried to find the URL again but it’s lo longer up.
With the US right next door and providing Military funding for [i][u]MOST[/i][/u] of the MDF, I doubt that they would buy anything from China. I asked a similar question not long ago and got a few replies.
The primary function of these planes will be to monitor airspace and sea approaches to our country, we’ve had a big problem for a long time with illegal immigration, especially coming in from the sea approaches from the Timor direction.
While the sea life are good neighbours to have, they don’t speak our language and can’t tell us if someone is coming that is not supposed to be.
What has happened to the Single seat Attack version of the AT-63 that has been ordered by nthe FAA? Are there any pics or info around of that yet?
Well now it’s official, one more and we have the original order 😉
OOOOOOOOooohhhhhhhhhh wow I have to get to Linkoping in a hurry, I really love that plane!
Caz: were are they mate?
Caz: were are they mate?>
You are both wrong, they should have bought the Rafael
That’s the ticket guys.
Dis: Mate I love the B’s I( think that it was way ahead of it’s time. Alot of the tech used on it went in to it’s replacement the Tomcat. As for that Shooting star, mate you should know better 😛 And that F-94, wow that is rare.
You have a rather impresive site there mate, I’d be glad to help out in what ever way I can.
I have my own chat board called Scattered Intelligence Agency, feel free to join in, I’ll be sure to mention you there!
So after all this have you guys got any other weird burner pics?
wonder if they’ll get a camo scheeme?
hmmm must be my server then, cause I’ve noticed it in my thread about which jets the countries started out with as well, looks like I’m gonna have to ring them yet again
Papa Lima: Mate didn’t Sweden have the J-21R’s before the vampire? As for which thread this should be in, I wasn’t expecting such an historical account as this, maybe I should have posted it in the Flypast section after all.
Hawk: Damd they look good mate, are they going for an upgrade or will they be replaced? If replaced when and with what?
Art: Didn’t Venlo opperate some Blitz’s as well during the war, or am I yet again mistaken?
