1. It's a modern photo.
2. There are no surviving Jagdpanthers in that colour scheme.
3. Therefore it's a model.
4. By Chris Wauchop.

5. Courtesy of Photoshop.
6. The tow rope and the sit of the tracks also gives it away.
7. Good effort though, enjoyed working it out. Thanks Phil.

The Jagdpanther is a modell but the view is very good and the proportions of gras and trees are also coherent.
Have fun building, Kind regards

It's always those track link horns that give these photos away, I must machine a handful for photo shoots, the wing nuts although nice and small don't help either.

Just in case anybody missed it, this is very real, final approach to MPA airport in the Falklands and those missiles are hot on that Phantom! I am in the Tristar but we also went down via C130 (Hercules) which was a very long flight, stopping off at Ascension and then on again.Note the angle of attack of the Phantom to stay with us.
