An interesting fighter; novel vertically stacked engines. The designers struggled to fit the rear undercarriage in due to the slim fuselage and thin, high-mounted wings. Likewise I struggled with this model, in the end putting wheels under the wing tips. Paint based on 5 Sqn design.

I like this plane, great effort move the rear gear back to the fins on the fuselage and it works better, obviously it's a bit tall for wing mounted undercarriage. It could also do with more power to be honest but it's a 9/10.

Ok backs away slowly
Wow I make no sence
People should be more looking at other planes not the hottest or highest rated great job! May no be designed as pro but no one is a pro
