Hey everybody, I've posted a small update to my modern military aircraft MOC
collection.  It can be seen in total here:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=Bryce2501

The previously unseen models include the J-8 Chinese Inteceptor (most famous
for being the chinese type involved with the collision with a USN EP-3 Elint
aircraft) the X-45 UCAV (possibly the wave of the future as far as Deep
Strike and SEAD missions are concerned) and the F-35A CTOL variant of the
Joint Strike Fighter.

Additionally, I have removed the J-7 from the MiG-21 folder and given it a
folder of its own, as it is a highly modified, independently built variant
of the russian fighter.

Other changes include the addition of different stores options on
preexisting models.

In total I have displayed models for all of my built MOCs.  The list is;

- A-10 Warthog in current and Desert Storm colors
- Eurofighter Typhoon in RAF colors
- F-2 Maritime Strike Aircraft in JASDF service and trainer colors
- F-35A CTOL JSF in USAF color
- F-16 C/D and E/F Vipers in various (mainly USAF) colors
- MiG-21 "Fishbed" PMF variant
- Su-27 and Su-35 "Flanker" in PLAAF and RuAF colors
- MiG-29 "Fulcrum" in RuAF colors
- F-7MG in PLAAF colors
- F-8II "Finback" in PLAAF colors
- SH-60 Seahawk B/R versions in JMSDF and USN colors
- F/A-18 SuperHornet E/F/G versions in USN colors
- F-5E Tiger II in ROC colors
- F-14 Tomcat A/A+/B/D versions in various USN and demonstration colors
- UH-60 Blackhawk helo in US Army colors
- HH-60 Nighthawk SAR/SOC helo in lo-viz dark grey
- F-15 Eagle C/E versions in USAF colors
- S-3 Viking A/C versions in various USN colors
- X-45 UCAV in lo-viz dark grey

I have others in various stages of completion (many of them hampered by the
lack of a 2x4 wedge plate .dat), but I am always on the lookout for a new
subject.  If anyone has a favorite type that's not on the list, I'd like to
take a crack at it.

These are all absolutely stunning MOCS!  I don't know much about jets, but
the images fit what I know the real thing to be.  I've seen Top Gun (a few
times ;) ) and your F14 is dead on.

This one is a little obscure, but I would love to see the Avro Arrow done up
in LEGO.  But no worries about it at all if you don't.

Take care and nicely done!

Hey Dave, thanks for your comments. The F-14 is my single favorite airplane and I spent more time and effort on that MOC than on any other, so I'm glad that it shows. I can honestly say that your suggestion of the Avro Arrow is truly unique. I'm (...) (23 years ago, 9-May-02, to lugnet.build.military)
