New Typhoon display livery
But Black Radomes do not!!! Absolutely rubbish scheme, my 13 year old niece could design a better one (and her other uncle actually has done so). Just like the Union Flag on that Voyager being spaghettified (into a Black hole / down the drain).
Union Flag should be treated with more respect.

ZJ914 is an IX Squadron airframe and was repainted in black last year, perhaps inspired by the US aggressor schemes. Remains to be seen whether this is a one-off experiment, or if all IX Squadron jets will end up painted black.

Thank you, Stu666! 
so ... Aggressors have to be highly visible so you can see them coming?

- Jersey International Air Display – Thursday 9 September
The Red Arrows are due to return to the skies over Jersey in September to headline this iconic local event. The world-renowned aerobatic display team missed the 2017 and 2019 shows, and the 2020 Air Display was cancelled due to pandemic restrictions.

How come nobody has noticed they got the flag backwards ? 
Look at Starboard underneath and Port on top
Here's the real thing (well at least until Scotland leaves
)
It's a little like those souvenir mugs you can buy in London where they make half a flag for one side, then just reverse the picture on the other side. Maybe it's a cost saving measure

...as for the very first picture (not that my opinion counts mind) - my first impression was that it looks like it's part of the British Airways fleet
...but one drawback is that because the intake cover is red it no longer stands out, though you'd hope that wouldn't be a problem

I never really understood why the diagonals are off centre - it's no wonder 99% of people get it wrong...............
