Hi guys, going to resurrect this topic. Regarding the Popeye missiles, is 106 squadron the only Baz unit to employ the weapon? Have only seen pictures of the Popeye on that squadron's aircraft. Does 133 squadron's B/D aircraft employ the Popeye too?

Could this be the reason why the shoulder station pylons (4-6) on the K/SG/SA are longer than the standard USAF ones because of the updated transfer buses?

Wonderful job so far Gianni!

Thank you. I don't have WIPs of the restoration project, but I did have a WIP topic here when I first completed this 10 years back. Cheers!

My apologies habu2. Anyone else couldn't see the pictures? If not, here's the link to the pictures in my main imgur account! https://imgur.com/gallery/8Izse2Z Cheers!

Hi all, This is my recently restored F-15SG with a fresh coat of paint, new tails, decals and minor improvements. Some of you may remember my 1/48 F-15SG build about 10 years back. http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?/topic/209636-148-academy-f-15sg-fighting-shikras/ While I could say I had enjoyed the build process back then, to be very honest the end result left a great deal to be desired. Fast forward to today after a 8 year hiatus, I decided to improve upon the beauty of this Strike Eagle subject with a much-needed makeover. To start off as well as recap,

Hi guys, Am looking for a Sniper targeting pod for an F-15SA build. If anyone has a spare pod that you don't need, I'd love to hear from you. Those from the Academy F-15E or Kinetic F-16 will be good! Am willing to pay for shipping. Drop me a PM and let's work something out! Cheers!

The Academy F-15I has both AN/AXQ-14 pod, Popeye 1 missiles and the associated AN/ASW-55. The pod in the skunkworks set is actually an AN/ASW-55 mislabelled as an AN/AXQ-14. For info.

For the SPICE bombs, no data link pod will be required. The AN/AXQ-14 is required for the GBU-15/AGM-130 while the Popeye uses another pod, the AN/ASW-55. Note that if you'll like to load a Popeye on an F-16, the smaller Popeye 2 Have Lite is the one that's certified for carriage. More info here! https://missilethreat.csis.org/missile/popeye/

This is amazing Jin! 太美了！

I think Tamiya XF-19 Sky Grey might be a close match for 36251.

Hi, can you see them now?

Nice work so far, Gianni. Hard to believe that its 1/72!

Namaskar Sir! That's a sweet looking Flanker! Could pass off as a real bird with those photos! Well done!
