Sarathi S.

I've also got one with a bit of a yellow tinge.

Lot of SOF guys have gone away from the quad-tubes in favor of PVS-31s due to weight and size concerns, as well as some of the issues mentioned above in this thread. As for who it was in the pic I've heard it was one of the SFGs, not SEALs.

New rotors among other things, if I remember correctly.

Reissue of the Olimp AH-1W NTS set. AH-1Z and UH-1Y would be good too.

Considering it looks to be a rebox of the standard Italeri C-130 kit you'll run into the same pitfalls as that does, i.e. improperly sized engine nacelles, if my memory serves me correctly. Other than that, I say go for it.

This will definitely be one I follow if Oliver's gonna work his magic on it.

I work on Zulus, but getting walkarounds of the helmet may be a bit difficult. Details look... Odd, some panel lines seem a lot heavier than they need to be, but I'll still probably pick one of these up. I'm hyped up by the schemes they included.

What is up with that M249 though? It's not 1996 anymore.

One thing that would be interesting is that new SATCOM antenna that CV and some MV-22s have been getting, apparently. Source: https://theaviationist.com/2018/09/20/new-bulge-on-top-of-u-s-marine-corps-and-afsocs-v-22-osprey-tilt-rotor-aircraft-is-a-radome-that-houses-a-satcom-antenna/

Probably wishful thinking, but what about 1/72?

Kitty Hawk callouts are inaccurate. The TPS on the AH-1Z and UH-1Y is FS 35237 on the upper surfaces and FS 36375 everywhere else.

Great to hear. Even if the Olimp conversion has become unobtanium now, having more options for 3-color aircraft will be welcome.

Is there any update on an ETA for the 1/72 AH-1W sheet? It's been a while since the 1/48 sheet dropped and I was wondering if the 72nd scale release was still planned.

Double post, pls delete

Not very well I think. Didn't they run out of mission-capable surface combatants and surface-surface missiles a year or so ago?
