I'd say "EuroEagle. Not to scale, wings could be scaloramed" Can tinker with wing size or leave as is !

Post by: LemonJello on December 10, 2013, 09:37:44 PM: Bored the other night, I was running random searches on eBay and ran across a couple of 1/48 kits of this plane and now I'm considering a forward-swept wing Eurofighter as a possible project.

It would be interesting to do a single engined variant.

Engine does not have to be necessarily Volvo RM8. I think more in an upscaled version of EJ200.

Title: Re: Eurofighter Typhoon
Post by: upnorth on December 24, 2023, 09:39:10 PM: I like those reimagining of the two seaters.

The different contour of the spine area immediately behind the cockpit would probably require redesgn or relocation of the air brake.

However, I have a foggy recollection of early concepts drawings and models of the Typhoon where it had airbrakes either side of the tail fin, like the Tornado. So I suppose reverting to that could work if you couldn't have the brake on the spine.
