Gorgeous Crusaders!!  And I agree that the last one is wicked.  Tell me, does it carry captured Sidewinders or AA-2 Atoll missiles?  Might be interesting to see it with the radar from a late-model MiG-21 and carrying the radar-guided version of the Atoll.

Definately Sidewinders, though maybe not captured, possibly sold to China? Who knows, it's a mystery! ;)

Huckbeins showing weathering as well used fighters makes them look extra realistic.  Projects an alternate history.
F-77 and Crusaders also favorites.

I can't believe it's been six years since you did the Huckbeins and Wyverns and they are still some of my favorites. I love your African campain Hucks!  :)

Like them all. The IAF Lightnings are very realistic and could have been a great fit into their air defense picture.

The Israeli black dragon and the Aussie shark mouth 104's are both very cool.

There's actually a story fitting around all these RAF Starfighters. I'll post it with better profiles of them at a later date.
