I am only concentrating on the A-4E at the moment for TopGun and I think the TA-4J I think it is. Once these are done then I'll be looking into some of the other options, probably only the ones based on the similar airframe of the E. Not really the earlier ones.
I'm afraid you will only be able to get your hands on it initially with the TopGun package when it is released. As well as the F-14 Tomcat. And I will look into other options afterwards.

OK Here is one of the earlier shots of the Main model of the TopGun Aggressor. There is not alot of exterior detail so far just the main fuselage and wings. But main texturing is coming along here. This shows my progress with anti-aliased lines as well, so Ive learnt how to do that and will be amending the F14 textures accordingly.
You'll notice in the background, the T-38 by Jake and Kev, repainted to MiG-28. This will be used in testing as aggressors till the F-5E/F is available.

Will the jets operated by BAe Systems be included in the finished product?

Into "jets", read the "Skyhawks".
I think it's 4 they have in their inventory, based in Germany at Wittmund I think.

Like I said Sav, the model will only be made initially as the A4E and TA4J for the TopGun package. If people want further versions from there then I will do them for any packages.
I've seen pics of the ones you mean though

May be a case of painting up the A-4Es in BAE colours for the time being then!
