Hi.  This is my Sea Vixen, mostly from the box. Fit is OK, decals are great.

Cockpit detail is rather good, but if you wish to build a canopy opened sea vixen, consider buying an aftermarket upgrade as the frame hood is not detailed enough.

I was fortunate (fool ?) enough to buy instruments of the real jet, so that it makes a nice addition in my collection of RN wing folded planes.
