I'm with JP.  XA-46 Phantom VERY interesting.
Could make as 1/72 starting with 1/144 B-47   Ya think?

Thanks guys! I think the B-47 would make a good basis for the XA-46.

Nice gallery, interesting and varied subjects. Especially note and like the little details like the nav lights, exhausts and the booster plume, very well done !

It's a Sea Hurricane VII, developed, in part due to a lack of availability of Seafires. A handful of non-navalised Hurricane VIIs were also delivered to the RAF as fighter-trainers, freeing up front-line types for other duties. Some were known to last into the late 1940s as squadron hacks such as this 64 Squadron machine:
