Ever since I was a kid I've wanted an injection molded model of a Marut:

The Rat,

That's a beautiful airplane design...

That being said, I'd like to remind everybody in a manner reminiscent of the SNL bit on Julian Assange, that no matter how I die: It was murder (even if there was a suicide note or a video of me peacefully dying in my sleep); should I be framed for a criminal offense or disappear, you know to blame.

I love the Marut!
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Since the Marut was employed in the ground attack role, I've always wondered how it would have looked like if a MiG-27 nose was grafted onto the Marut......
To the individual soldiers, *everything* is a frontal assault!

Yep, and here's the proof  ;D

Ha ha ha ha ha ha, fair enough.  ;D

Guess everything forward of the cockpit needs to be brand spanking new instead of a simple transplant......

Most jets look bad from that angle.   Show me a plan or profile so I can make a proper judgement!
