We're always told in the media of the role RAF advisors play with the Saudi air force. Apparently they don't advise them on special markings.

I think the typhoon looks the best out of all 4 good schemes.

shame our lot didnt think the oldest airforce in the world deserved better than some cheap vinyl stickers.

it seems everyone else puts us to shame in this department nowadays.

A330 too by the looks. Varying responses, I think they look great- only so much you can do with purest Green...

Why would 'our lot' be interested in what the Finnish air force were doing? ;-)

I think it's hard to argue against the fact they look fabulous - I think the negative reactions are largely to do with the visceral reactions some people have against Saudi fighter jets; for obvious reasons.
