Both kits come with long and short tailpipes, the F.3 was Derwent powered and had a shorter tailpipe.  There will be no point in posing the F.3 with the cowls open as
the Derwent has a very different burner can arrangement.  The first 15 or so F.3's still had Wellands but I want to build a later version with the tailpipe difference.  Tamiya
did not model the Derwent in their F.3 kit.    They did, however, include both tailpipe variations in all the kits.
