USAF with RAF roundels and crews. So the Americans could deny any involvement if one got shot down.
It's that "special relationship" thing.

Phantom Boys from the Works, only 7 quid.

I do believe that the RB-45 was flown by RAF crews also so if they were shot down the English accent was better than the American.

Have a look here. https://www.pprune.org/military-aviation/376693-russian-overflights-raf-crews-during-cold-war-7.html

Nearly mate, it was supposed to be fitted with a turret from the Gneisenau but with the middle gun removed and all its associated loading mechanism.

Lol you wont be disappointed mate, the weapons pack comes with 14 weapons stations/turrets but you can only fit a maximum of 8 on the back of the Ratte so you will have a few spare for other things., also there are some turned metal barrels and PE. If you have not seen the instructions, have a look HERE, 6 sets of tracks to build with individual track links...OMG!!!!!!!!!
