So stop by and say "Hi" and "Like" it if you want to. It may be a better/easier way for people to contact me and keep up with any news in addition to here of course. Cheers!

A-4G+ VFA-724, Nowra NAS.

Two greys. A-4G pre-upgrade.

Desert Skyhawk.

This one is based on the Australian Army desert camouflage uniform.

"What if?" Skyhawks of the Royal Australian Navy.

Hi guys, well what might have been if the Australian Government had kept its Fleet Air Arm and upgraded the Skyhawk in a similar way to how the RNZAF did? New radar, GPS equipped and laser designator capable. Also, what might of camouflage schemes looked like for the upgraded Skyhawks, called A-4G+ in this case?

I’ll consider both air superiority and ground hugging camouflage schemes in this study. The Air Superiority schemes speak for themselves. The low level schemes take into account the effects of the Su-27 Flanker family’s arrival in the Asia Pacific region.

In my version of this “What if?” reality there is no such thing as ‘budgets’ so many experiments are/were carried out. Plus the many exercises partaken in across the country and abroad and the camouflage schemes applied for them.

This should be interesting. Let me know what you think and don’t hesitate to offer possible camouflage/markings ideas!
