Looks like we are going to need an AI Hunter

Who needs Typhoons

You wait until they get the Buccaneer and SU-22 working

As to Su-22 - you can still watch them in Poland: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1180661/L/

[Ooops repost]

BTW- I presume that AI retro fleet will be next-generation MAIW developments but now all the current stuff must be covered

Yeah, the hunter is a cracking looking aircraft, as the old saying goes, if it looks good it is good.
Went to Kemble airshow last year, you want to see hunters put through their paces, go there. WOW

Oh yes, AI Hunters would be awesome and the amount of different air forces that used them.

As much as I love the Hunter, I believe that time could be spent more productively somewhere else. After all, there's only two going back into service, so you could probably get away with a low-poly flyable model anyway.

Two ! Two ! my god nearly a whole squadron then!

Seriously Tweek
I agree with you, it was only a topic thrown in for a laugh not a demand for someone to actualy make a model!

You never know

It's on the 'slow' track, but stuff gets done to it when i have time, or need a break from the 'current' one.

Being done as an F.58 complete with wiggly braking chute.

Outstanding stuff. Looks good.
I know that its not everybody's thing but I would love to have the Camel and the Owl back at Wittering, but I reluctantly accept that retro is second priority.

It's now 3 Hunters, MOD have leased T.8B XF995.

A 50% increase, those numbers just can't be ignored

It could also be used to populate Kemble, not to mention a few static airframes. But yes, I do agree with Tweek priority should be given to more modern packs with retro/smaller ones generally being secondary.
