Aggressor/Decoy and BDR GB Chat Thread

[tc2324]

Ok chaps, started a thread for this GB starting shortly after the end of the Red Star one.

Like it says on the tin, this GB can be for Aggressor`s, decoy`s and BDR aircraft and I`d like to add that whif`s will be accepted.

Over to you lot.

Decoys being drones - Ie the Jindiviks, not these modern day things!

[ArabJazzie]

Dont think i will be able to take part in this one.........

.......if it wasnt for Black Mike!!!

Put me down as a maybe as its the 1/48th Hasegawa Phantom FG1 but ive got a bit of a space issue at the minute, more on that later i think.
Arabest,
Geoff.

I've got a fair few kits for this. Nellis Blue F-15, US Navy F-16, a few F-5s, could throw in some Hawks as well. If only I could afford the Tamiya 1/48 Nellis F-16s. I'd happily build them all I'm quite looking forward to this GB

[tc2324]

Just to keep this GB alight on the backburner I thought a few pics for ideas was in order.

Aggressors







Decoys (For the brave amoung you!)





Battle Damaged/Repair (For the very insane amoung you)





And remember what if`s will be allowed.

So if you always wanted to know what an RAF Phantom may have looked like in aggressor colours, here`s your chance to throw caution to the wind and make it.

Oh I really fancy a Typhoon in the blue, gray shade or brown Aggressor colours, hmmmmmm

[waghorn41]

I could probably do a whif for this

[tc2324]

When does this start?

Gonna take a few weeks off first but I`m looking at mid June for the start. I`ll confirm shortly.

Cool, and how long does it run for?.
I maybe able to enter an upcoming project.

The run time is three months so that means this will conclude mid September.

[tc2324]

[tc2324]

Remember chaps, this starts in a couple of weeks...., so who`s interested?

[Typhoon2]

I'll probably enter a f-16 and maybe something else depending on time and other stuff!

[steve149c]

I'm in gents - my first WHIF!!

RAF Typhoon in Aggressor colours, undecided which coloud scheme yet, but probably the three tone blue or three tone grey, but then again I like the three tone brown. Squadron - well as we only have one true Aggressor squadron in the UK - I am thinking of either 100 Sqn, or maybe 74 (down TC, down boy!). Will see how my spare decals look when I get home, but I am liking both options, or maybe another, depending on availability from stash.

Already got the Typhoon waiting in box, nice one to get started on

Steve

[atech]

I'm in, either 1/48 hunter or 1/48 Skyhawk, maybe both if I can get the time

[waghorn41]

I'm in on this with a Hunter Whif - well what did you expect?

[tc2324]

10 days and counting.

Anymore interested?

[tc2324]

Arabjazzie (?)
FTS
Steve149c
waghorn41 (?)
tc2324
Lowbow (?)

mosquito (?)
