I like teeth on the 38 engines, but there's just never enough of them! Historically they were very under-played. I'd like to see them take up half the nacelle!!!

Like the "snake" skin on the later model we have in-game. Make it BIG teeth. However, there's less intake on the -Gs so less area to put a mouth. Pity.


EDIT: Sorry I didn't clarify. I like the skins. I'm just lamenting the lack of large-shark-mouthed 38Gs :D

LOL, I think there are a few shark-mouthed Js, which would have more area for a big mouth, full of teeth.

The overall shape of the G's nacelle/boom is very shark-like in its proportions, though.

Agreed. I just wish the pilots at the time would have thought of that and used more of it! :D
