As part of my vibrating-in-my-chair anticipation of the upcoming AIM Argus conversion kits here is what it will look like. Old school Non Specular Sea Blue with AGM-12 Bullpups.

I am giving up listing them. They all end up on the shelf of procrastination anyways.

Here is a shameless plug for the awesome Mike Belcher and the decal sheet he has prepared for the kit.

It's very Argooossy!

It is quite the trail blazer in that is the the first civilian airframe to be converted to a maritime requirement. Then followed by the P-3, Nimrod and now the P-8.
