Convair B-58 Hustler Fictional RAF Schemes.zip 2024-06-04

Here are two fictional texture sets for teh excellent Glowingheat Convair B-58 Hustler. They depict two RAF schemes th Hustler might have worn in RAF service. The first is a pale anti-radiation scheme from the early 1960's bearing the tailfin emblem of No. 617 Sqdn based at RAF Scampton, and the second a 1970's low-level camouflage scheme on an aircraft from No. 44 Sqdn based at RAF Waddington. Although never sold abroad there was some interest in the Hustler both here and in Australia but I imagine the enormous cost and complexity of the aircraft was beyond us at the time. Also the UK was later to commit to the TSR.2 project to fulfill a not-dissimilar role, though that again came to nothing.

Both paints have been assigned the 'a_tactical' model to fly with iron bombs. However, by assigning the 'a_proto' model, it is possible to fly them with an air-launched ballistic missile (ALBM).
