Nah, I've just bought a battleship.

[NutLoose]

Cool, how many guns?

[CoffmanStarter]

What happened to ...

"I have no live rounds or empty cases in my possession SIR!" :E

[jimgriff]

Psst- Herod!- what colour is the battleship?

[ORAC]

Would I be able to take it home on the train? :O

[jimgriff]

@Orac- if you have a friend to help you lift it- no problem!

[ex-fast-jets]

Who would want one - it probably comes with a Lightning attached!!

:E

[Biggus]

Why would anyone attach a Lightning to a battleship?

[NutLoose]

To add a bit of bling?

[Fg Off Bloggs]

[NutLoose]

You won't need his bike, he has this to get around on

I see it has the nosecone missing.......... I wonder what they would offer me for mine!

[Green Flash]

Ref the things location, I wonder if it's ex Aberporth? Although I wouldn't have thought it was a spare/training round - or did they re-arm at the airfield? Wouldn't have thought the runway was long enough for a Lightning or whatever.

[Courtney Mil]

Given that it's a cut-away, I suspect it was a teaching aid. That would make it quite an attractive item - to the right people.

[dctyke]

When i did my RTFS (Red Top Firestreak) course at at Newton it was there. I don't think there would be another cutaway around, it would have cost a fortune to produce.

[Scruffy Fanny]

There are two cutaway perhaps three! Firestreaks next to the lightning at the RAF museum Hendon
