No pictures, I'm afriad, but an ID would be appreciated.

Monday evening, East Midlands Airport. About three minutes apart, two planes took off. Each was dark grey, with two tail-mounted jets, and what looked like a black canopy, but could have been a radar pod thing. No markings, other than a simple red bar on the tail. I'm also struggling with scale; they could have been fighter-jet sized but I think they were larger.

Any ideas?

Hmm. Could be. Different colour, and that pod looks a little too far back on the fuselage, but then I don't have a photographic memory.

Thanks.
