Dassault Rafale-M - 2
The Rafale-M is a carrier based aircraft and for the competition I wanted to bring the aircraft more "to life". What way to better do this than adding a diorama with ground (or sea? ;-P) equipment to the whole.
The complete diorama is a recreation of the aft port-side of the aircraft Carrier "Charles de Gaulle". I added a Deck tractor/ Tow-truck, a tow-bar and 2 weapons carts (I think that is the right name for them).
At first I was planning on adding the MBDA MICA air-air missiles to hard-points on the plane, but with 3 1500lb fuel tanks and 4x AASM Hammer bombs already equipped it got a little too crowdy under the wings for my taste. So therefore I added them next to the aircraft on the weapons carts.
