Challenge is that most kits - atleast in 1/48 - have the rear IP from early block 1-5 models, while every real life Viper was upgraded to the style found in Block 15 and beyond. The link HABU2 gave is a gift in this regard, as it will allow you to see the differences through each block. Yes that does help alot. Thanks guys for all your comments. I think I know what I'm going to do.

So the answer is no to you question - you cannot use the front IP as a rear IP. Oh i know that. I was just wondering If i could have used the back IP of the B as the Back IP for a D I know the Front IP is alot different from the back. Thanks thou.

I was thinking about building this bird as it looked in desert storm using the Revell 1/72 kit. I have the B model and a C and was wondering if i could use the The front IP from the C and use the rear IP from the B if that would be correct. and from what i understand then if that is true all i need is the C tail, small mouth intake and GE nozzle. I anything else i need guys? As a note i ment 86-0047.

The only ones that I have been able to fine are some old microscale sheets, 71-544 and 72-543. If you dont mind waiting they pop up on Ebay from time to time. Thats were I found my copies. Hope this helps

Is that academy F-8P still available ?

looks good to me. Which kit is that?

I went with the brassin seat and it looks fantastic when its done.

Now that you say side walls im agreeing with you. I was thinking we were talking about The bottom part of the cockpit. My bad.

Hey I'm doing one too right now but I'm doing the Has kit and I was wondering the same thing, tho it looks to me like its dark gull gray in this photo I found. Heres a link linky

I think it has every but the oleo's. I built a CF-188A out of it by back dating the kit. It comes with A tails Here is every thing that comes with it and the instructions. linky

or bottle of captain.

There is a pics that I found once on airliners.net of 157514 that look like it has the color scheme you are talking about. So they might not have been wrong after all.

Im almost finished with a A-7E i started and i wanted to put a load out. but i want to make it accurate. The squadron Im doing is VA-66. Could some one tell me what my options are? What weapons did they use for combate at that time in Lebanon?

I think the Army wont march off the fiscal cliff but they went way back! :redx:/> They wont have enough money to deploy in order to march off the fiscal cliff

I think they are a dark blue green. i usually just mix tamiya clear green and clear blue till i find something i like.

Thats what he told me a while back when i had talked to him about my order problem. maybe its a problem with them?

I have had the same problem and he told me the same thing. I wish they would get here already. :blink:

Thanks guys. ill go look at those places fingers crossed!

Ah. thanks for the quick reply. Ill see if i can get what i want else were.

does any body know if they are still taking orders? i tried to order some stuff on the website but it wont let me.

This must be just as bad if not worse! link

Its decent. Not the best F-16 kit out in 1/72. Im building one right now just for something new to do. I used a few parts from the revell kit that I had left over. The horizontal stabilizers look to small for me so i took those from the revell kit to. The best part in the academy kit is the decals the look very nice and they are printed by cartograf.

im going to be pee myself when these finally come out in 1/72.

thats what i was thinking seeing how tamiya usually markets italeri kits under the warbird brand that they have.

so i was looking on the net at some stuff and stumbled onto this. linky
