Awesome! The chin intake really does have a RW Regulus II look about it. Very nice!

No. Absolutely no chance whatsoever.

It's important to stay firm on these issues.

Oh and, to whomever left that image there, great scheme!

Certainly looks the part.

Am appreciating the various flavors of F-84s you are serving up. Nice Navy concepts and the radar nose.
Years ago remember seeing a depressing picture of many F-84Fs in 1960s piled on top of each other ready to be chopped up. UGH !

Ugh indeed! Thanks for the feedback finsrin.

Atar 9C, yes but more of an alternative to the Aeronavale F-8E(FN). Although I don't see why it couldn't compete with the Mirage family.

On a slightly different tack, what if SEPECAT happened a little earlier??

It does indeed. But that 54 Sqn Sirocco GR.1 almost anticipates a conventional (non-V/STOL) Harrier!

elmayerle · « **Reply #142 on:** January 28, 2012, 12:47:08 PM »

Perhaps an Israeli Sirocco? And their J79-powered derivative of the Sirocco?

JP Vieira · « **Reply #143 on:** January 28, 2012, 07:29:15 PM »

The Sirocco does look good!

That was sort of the effect I was after. I intended for it to be a proto-Jaguar of sorts but with it's more curvaceous lines, decided that the LRMTS of the Harrier GR.3 suited it better and it very much became a blurring of the Harrier and Jaguar.

Israeli Sirocco up next.
