Could've sworn I posted these one here.... ???

Anyway, modelable ramjet Phoenix derivatives for my take on the Sea-Vixen-Cat:

Top one is straight Phoenix for reference.

Middle one is Bristol Purple Haze Mk.I AAM with tail fins cut diagonally and Phoenix fins reversed to look more "British".

Bottom one is BAE Dynamics Purple Haze Mk.II with all-new Britsh-style main wings.

Actually, ISTR that Hughes' competitor to Vought's LVRJ was based on the Phoenix.  I'm thinking that LVRJ-style intakes at the front base of the fins would work well.
