Ooh that's a nice one. Eventually I'd like two. One with wings folded and one extended

They have one at Pima air museum if you need to see one for real.

I was watching a bunch of videos - apparently it was a pretty effective airplane and the one with the big radar blister (even uglier) would have helped a lot during the Falklands war.

The box is 20x13

Yeah, the Brits could have used a proper carrier or two in that war.
