I must say that really does look very smart, presumably the future COD’s for the Carrier’s, replacing the aged C2A’s.

a nice start to the day & a nice set of images I must say :thumbs:
I hope they keep them all in that colour scheme ( but that might be wishfull thinking ) :whistle:
I am old enough to remember when the majority of US.NAVY & US.MARINE CORPS A/c types were in that scheme, also the early USAFE F4C's & RF4C's :thumb: :D
yes and before any one picks me up I am aware the gull grey would have been upper side/white lower

C-2A is one of my favourites and I'll miss them when they retire, but I do like the Osprey painted in this scheme. Hope to see them some day over the UK.

Thanks for sharing, Lee.
