Yep!
It's the same old picture they have used for all their press releases - probably the only one they have
If they were to contact the photo section at ISK they could get some really nice MR2 ones - in bare metal and shiney - even sepia, B&W and colour - Hemp, or Sea Grey (actually duck egg blue) the MR4A colour, which is very smart - 2 'blue bombers' on the ISK line at present.
Probably even get a photo of the one that was sprayed turd brown due to an incorrect 1 digit section and reference No from some knob at MOD - this was spotted by a 'sharp' stacker who advised them of the colour - "Wind your neck in and just issue the paint" came the reply - so they did!
This jet was aptly nicknamed "Elsan Airways", and, at the time, was wisely delivered to 4th Division South at St Mawgan
