Excellent shots. Nice to see some variety in schemes, get a bat on the tail and some red code numbers on it! Thanks for posting.

Just missing the Red Star but that would upset the Bear😁

Joking aside... Very nice photos in great light... look forward to catching it at Coningsby.

Apologies for the possibly silly questions but how come this is painted black? And would the black affect how fast the aircraft can go etc due to heat?
