De Havilland Vampire, Venom, Sea Vixen Ideas and Inspiration

[kitnut617]

I've got a kit of that in the stash. D'oh! already said that --- 

[Volkodav]

Does anyone have any info on the proposed swept wing, conventional tail Venom / Sea Venom that was cancelled in favour of the Sea Vixen?  I have read about it in a couple of post on RN carriers and vaguely recall a line drawing somewhere but have no real info on it.  I imaging it may have been an evolution of the Swallow?

DH.116, I know I have some books with three-views of it (one on the Venom and one on the Sea Vixen).  It somewhat reminds me of a Sea Venom crossed with a Hunter.  I can hunt it down if you're interested.

That would be great.

AGRA used to mention the type and said it would have out performed the Sea Vixen and fitted on the smaller carriers.

This one?

[Volkodav]

Yes!

I wonder if there is a kit anywhere, that or detailed enough drawings to get busy on the 3D printer.

Thankyou

Smaller Phantom wings attached to a modified Hunter T7 fuselage?

1/100 Phantom wings combined with a Sea Venom cockpit and nose blended with a Hunter T.7 fuselage?

Possible.  Possible.   It would need to be carefully handled though...

I don't know, but the wing looks very similar to an FJ-4 wing ---

[elmayerle]

Looks like it has a greater chord, though.

Cool! 

Wondering about a Phantom cockpit section/fuselage....

As in replace the forward fuselage with that from an F-4 Phantom?

[ChernayaAkula]

^ Yup, that's the idea.

I'm doing it with a Javelin front. Lots and lots of PSR!

Here you have it.

Did you scale-o-rama that Carlos ?

No. It is constant scale. You have to work fuselage depth.

[KiwiZac]

I like that a lot.

It's perfect! 

With a bunch of Sparrows on there, fleet defence just got a little more bite and reach! 

[Litvyak]

omg that is perfect
