Bristol Beaufighter TF.X

34.5k GhostHTX  7.3 years ago

Here is a replica of the venerable Bristol Beaufighter TF.X (thats Torpedo Fighter mk. Ten for those of you that dont habla).

This example is "more or less" in the RAAF colours, as was used in the New Guinea campaign / Battle of the Bismark Sea and so on.

She is armed with 8 rocket projectiles, activated in pairs by AG 1,2,3 and 4.

These lovely rockets are taken from CaptBlackadders rather special White Tiger mk.1

VTOL up drops the landing flaps.

Other than that, flying this kite is very simple.

Have fun.
