Hi
The story is simple,a short Harrier,with a look of a space fighter.
Fins are actually MIG-21 horizontal stabilizers,2 tanks from A-26 Invader and Kfir canards.For the exhaust I used a pen cap and a Corsair bonnet (?) to cover the hole left after I cut the tail.

Cool. I don't know why but it reminds me a little of the SA-43 "Hammerhead" from "Space: Above and Beyond":
Maybe a compliment to this?

Wow! Are you sure there was a Harrier in this model? I see steps with Harrier parts, then I don't recognize anything... this is magic! or from another planet, yes!

Like, Like, Like it. Kept the refueling probe - good. If 1/72 should measure out close to Zip Jet size.

Looks good: if you were to put a longer, spikier nose cone on it, you could sell it as a STOVL Angel Interceptor....
