I don’t care how many engines you think this aeroplane should have, the NATO stock number says “quantity 1” for the engine , so one is all you get is 1, if you want 2 engines you are going to have to get the supply allocation changed !

"No, sir, lots of people make that mistake. It's not packing tape. We simply paint the whole aircraft green, then we paint it all grey, cover it with the tape, remove the tape and bingo! half the grey paint sticks to the tape and we have our green and grey camouflage."
