Many of us are bringing forward our national military aviation history in FS and I thought it might be a good idea to share some of my Norwegian repaints in a single thread.
I’ll start out with my latest work, Canadair produced MAP F-104G “FN-G” of 331 Skv, Bodø AB, as it looked in 1970. Of particular interest is that this aircraft is among a batch produced by Canadair for Lockheed and their MAP contract (not to be confused with the Canadair CF-104). It differed by the light grey paint scheme which covered all of the fuselage beside the engine compartment. The Lockheed produced Starfighters were delivered in a bare metal scheme.
Of interest is also the sqn badge under the canopy which is the squadrons ww2 RAF sqn badge. There is also a difference between the national roundel as seen on the intake and wings in dimensions.
(For the users of the default 331 Skv paint in the SSW F-104G take notice that the national decals are not very accurate.)
