Matchbox Lightning T55 kit
Starboard side, as the USAF might have used it. Falcon missile.
Same model, port side - as the US Navy might have used it. Sidewinder missile

Two sets of wings, changed at lunchtime, can really make people scratch their heads at model shows.
Next a Matchbox Lightning T55, as if the RAF used them on their return.
This side 11 Squadron, desert scheme.
And this side 5 Squadron Arctic camo.
Finally an Airfix F1a Lightning. Well the fuselage upper with a Matchbox belly. Other projects used all the other bits.
Forward swept wings laminated from plasticard, and white scheme reminiscent of the TSR-2 prototype.
