These look great, especially the SAR and FAA ones.

Great work nighthunter! Though this could have been instead of MIG-21F; not Draken ;)

Sebu, I did some serious research, and found that the Draken and Mirage III came out around the same time. And technically the Mirage could have replaced both.

Really can't see the purpose of stub-wings on the RAF Rescue variant

You could make the same point about the Gatling gun on the police version, but then we're talking about Hinds in UK service. Some allowances for rule of cool clearly has to be made.

Sniped by a Dane!


Anyway... Drop tanks and/or air-launched lifeboats. That and they serve an aerodynamic purpose, there's a reason why you don't see them without wings...

I like the gun on the police version - equipped to fire tear gas rounds for riot control?

A 12.7mm x108 Gatling would not be idea for tear gas delivery. High velocity rapid-fire delivery of lead however it is indeed ideal for.

Low-velocity rounds? ;) Or maybe a water cannon instead, sling the tanks on the hardpoints...
