MDF Scaled Down #1
By Andy Evans with Gary Hatcher
MDF Scaled Down takes you into the world of ‘Top Gun’, with a full colour, high octane look at the world of the United States Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps ‘Dissimilar Aircraft Training’ aircraft. The US Navy and Marines originally operated the A-4 ‘Skyhawk’, the T-38 ‘Talon’ and the F-5E ‘Tiger II’ to simulate ‘bad-guy’ aircraft from foreign nations, and likewise the US Air Force also employed the ‘Tiger’ for its purposes, whilst the Marines even operated a number of ex-Israeli Air Force ‘Kfir’s’ for a brief period.
However, in order to replicate the performance of the ‘next-generation’ of agile fighters, the Navy and Marines turned to the F/A-18 Hornet, and the F-16N ‘Electric-Jet’, whilst the Air Force opted for the F-16 ‘Viper’ and the larger F-15 ‘Eagle’. But what makes these aircraft so outstanding – apart from their mission – is the abundance of unique and diverse colour schemes and markings.
