Thank you.
Since in Sweden Winters are white, why not such a variation of the Splinter Camo...?

I can see both the desert and tropical splinter-schemed Lightnings flying under UN auspices as peace-keepers in suitable portions of the world (the Sinai and the African jungle) were there's enough conflict to warrant their presence.

Right, nice stuff all around.  Have a few F-89 kits and now know kind of build I would like to do.
Thanks for the concepts.
Bill

Thank you. Love to see it in plastic... :)

Sidewinder-AMRAAM combo on wing tips is touch I like.  Obviously has "real" engines to get off ground and climb unlike vintage F-89 with its loooong ground roll.  I am thinking F-404, what do you/others think?
Is another bash concept added to my like-to-do list.

PW1120 for late models replacing the J79 in earlier ones.

Thank you for the comments.
The new and improved F-89 would need better engines and I think that those are great for it.

Hello
The Vought Viper was a dive bomber used by the USAAC in the 1930's.
It is perhaps best known as a forerunner to the more famous Corsair

And dragging spats are good to reduce the diving speed!

That is a really interesting idea! I like the incorporation of the Corsair features!  :D

Hello
The Focke-Wulf FW-58 was a 4-seat sports and touring aircraft  of the 1930's.

My what lovely spats you have there!

Completely plausible too. Paint it aluminum or yellow and call it a prototype and you'd fool them from here to NAS Cherry Point!

And here is another one

The Hawker hare was a British sports/ touring aircraft of the 1930's.
Some of its design features were latter used on the Hawker monoplane (Hurricane).
Some Hares were also used by the military as a observation aircraft
