Naval Aircraft What If GB

Posted by rudy_102 on Saturday, August 19, 2006 4:07 PM

!!!!!!Welcome to the Naval Aircraft What If GB!!!!!!!!!!

Any scale, any era, all AM and scratchbuild welcome, as long as it operated off ships or NAS's, and is a what-if. If anyone could make a badge with a question-mark shaped tailhook, please do, as that is what I have already planned for the badge, but am Unable to do it myself. If It's already started, finished for less than 2 months, or from another GB, that's OK.

Participants:

Me: US Resistance Avenger from the 1000 Years 3rd Reich GB

Navalized MiG-31

mr.chex: Vought V-173 "Flying Pancake"

Sturzkampf: Chilean Seafire

PanzerWulff: P-51N "SeaStang"

Well I suppose I can add my P-51/N naval mustang in on this they never went into full production but a few were built for carrier trials

however they never were put into service (the Navy didn't trust inline engines as much as radials) my P-51/N"Seastang" will be in operational USN 3 tone cammo 1/48 scale it is also in the WWII what if build

ACE??? you were NEVER an ace AN ace HOLE maybe! (Lister to Rimmer on BBC's RED DWARF) Chris"Hey GRAVITY still works"Gray
