It's nice but I think F-105 style intakes would make it look even better. You could put bulges like on F-35 so they look like diverterless stealth intakes.

I am going in a new direction. Israel does to the Darken what they did to the Mirage 3 to make the Kfir. This is the Israeli C-4(Nachash Bare'ach)

A little back story : Israel breaks into the Swiss aircraft ind. Find plans for the Darken. Using this and french Milan(kite) programme experiment technology. The Darken becomes a backup for the Kfir. Adopting the new P&W F-100 engine. a new intake was placed on the underside much like the f-16. Then tied into the old intakes to give the air needed to the new engine.  :o

Indeed they do, and there's a whole thread on those tanks somewhere on here. The fuel is held in the rear half and there's 18 or 24 rockets in the front half, with natty little diverter tubes so the rocket exhaust doesn't brew up the fuel.
