These are the best TSR-2 piccies ive seen. Very well done!!! Did you create these pics yourself? If so, you should sell them as large format prints. In the first TRS-2 pics(heavy horses), what are the fairings under the bellies of the aircraft? Fuel tanks? Recce pods? EW suite perhaps?

Yep, but think about it. The Tornado, F/FB-111, Bucaneer, A-6 and SU-24 are all meaty heavy strikers. They’re highly spcialised and designed to do one thing: place bombs on target. Most airforces and navies want to get the “best bang for the buck”, so to speak. When budgets are tightened, out go the F-111, SU-24, and A-6 and in come the dual / multi role F/A-18E, F-15E and SU – 3X.

Of all these A/C, only the Tornado made it into a fighter, but of course was a compramise as it retained the low level atributes of its older strike predecessor.

Troo..agility does not always win the day. However, lets get real. An F-4X is still an F-4. Aerodynamically, it is still inferior to an F-15. You’d have to upgrade an F-4E’s radar, fire control, weapons systems, cockpit, etc to bring it up to AMRAAM F-15C STANDARD. And wot would be the point..?? You may as well build more Eagles and or upgrade F-15’s to F-15X standard with variable pitch engine nozzles, AESA radar, F-22 engines, advanced cockpit displys and so on.

Upgrading an F-15 is going to be a lot easier and beneficial than an F-4 anyday. The F-4’s had its time. let it rust in peace.

Here’s another one…

MARRIED WITH CHILDREN! A modern classic. You either love it or hate it.

Being repeated with double episodes on ITV2.

I’d have to agree with Athur. Not only are the F-4’s aerodynamics not designed to take M3, but as an aliminium bird, it would melt like toffee at M3. M2.5 – M2.7, possibly…

Whoah! Quick reply andrewman!!

Personally, I can’t see Rover surviving as a volume motor mfr. They simply can’t compete with Ford, Vauxhaull (GM), Nissan, Toyota, VW or Renault. Nor can they compete head to head with high end marks such as Jaguar, Mercedes or top range BMW’s.

They should have become a niche sports / utility car mfr years ago.

“(Buffpuff – didn’t they have a Yorkshireman join them in the second series for a while, the bloke who played Tosh Lines from the Bill when they were redoing Ally Fraser’s big house as a retirement home. I think the bloke, Kevin someone, played a Yorkie, didn’t he?)”

Kevin Llloyd was his name methinks. Mind you, not a permanent character…
