I have a couple of questions about C-5 as I am not sure of which version of your decal sheet that I should buy. I am wanting to make a C-5 from the Gulf conflict of 1990/1, and I know that both the A and B versions of the aircraft were used. What I do not know is what are the main differences between these two versions and are they obvious? I think that what I am mainly asking is could I make an A version from the B kit? This I ask because the price of the Roden kit has made me decide that I can only but one kit to make the model that I would like to. This would then lead me to ask which of your decal sheets would be best for what I want to build. Many thanks in advance for any help.

Don't know if it already is mentioned but 1/48 decals for a CH-46/HH-46 would be nice!
The kit decals from my kit are a disaster and the aftermarket ones are hard to get!Yes I asked on page 2.

Print Scale has three sheets out on the CH-46 in 1/72 scale

Yes that maybe but they do not do some of the unusual schemes that the UMSC had in the Gulf of 1991.

A suggestion for 1/72 and 1/48.
CH-46. Many nations use these as well as USMC.
-
According to the brilliant web site Dstorm.eu they were painted FS30219, FS30279 and FS36375.
The following link gives the paints that match these colours. http://dstorm.eu/pages/color/usa.html
Hope that this is of some help.

Now in stock at Hobbyterra, but at $119.

aaaand, I had some extra room, so I included some Myrtle Beach A models from Desert Storm, England AFB A models from Desert Storm, and some Pope/Moody jets from OSW/OIF.
Now that sounds interesting.

This sheet would be nice as a 1/72nd sheet.

I put Tornado GR1B into google and found a few when looking through the images provided.

Some nice pictures there. A couple of questions, does anyone make any decals for a Desert storm UH-1, and what kit and updates would I need to make one from this period? I ask because I have been unable to find any decals unless I have to cobble several decal sheets to do this, and most of the kits I see are either D or H versions. Not being up on my UH-1s id there any difference externally between these versions. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello
anyone happened to have pictures of HUEYs working on this conflict? Desert storm or Gulf war ?
I was looking on but just found a single photo
Try the web site dstorm.eu. There are many photos of many of the aircraft that were involved in the conflict.
-
There are also some photos on the web site dstorm.eu. If you go to "Planes and nose art" you will find a section or all the countries involved, click on UK and then on Tornado GR1.

Hi Paul - I think the Hasegawa boxing is still sought after, but there are several small errors on the sheet and I think the older Scale Master sheet is more accurate in some respects. I think I did a good job overall and I hope the 1/72 sheet will also do well. I sized mine for the Meng kit.
I have one of these kits and the Scalemaster decals sheet., but now I have the Meng kit I have been waiting for a decal sheet like this.
-
I will definitely get one of the 1/72nd sheets.

Hopefully it'll sell well enough for Kursad to give us another sheet or two of 1980's vintage G/H models plus Desert Storm options(yes these have been done before but they all seem to be OOP,
I may never have the space for a dozen or so B-52's but awesome new decals would be a great start.
I totally agree with this.

Indeed.
In fact, I think the first photographs I ever took of military aircraft were taken at Wyton - of Alconbury's F-5Es and RC-4Cs when their runway was being resurfaced.
1981 or '82 ?
Keith
We at Wyton went across to Alconbury in 1985, but I am sure that Alconbury came across to us in 1984. Our Sqn housed the TR-1s, whilst our ultra secret Nimrod R1s were parked outside.
-
Having been stationed at RAF Wyton during the early 1980s, which is only a few miles from RAF Alconbury ( and also being on the base when our runway was being repaired) I only saw single seat F-5Es there.

Just pre-ordered both the -141 & -135 sets!
I'm in for all of those, would love to see some Desert-Storm era Shamu KC-10s, as well as an option for the original hi-vis scheme. There are some decent photos at the dstorm.eu site if you haven't seen it.
Thanks
Jonah
I agree with that.

and those you refer to are HC3/HC3a....
HC4 being designated for Chinooks...
There were also Chinook HC3s. Each aircraft type has its own version designation, Chinooks being HC 1-6, and Merlin HC 1-4 so far. I know that the initial version of the Merlin is not HC 1, but something alse which I cannot think of at this moment in time, but you get what I mean.

Puma.
Gazelle.

I am sure that Dragon/Italeri do a 1/200 C-141B.

Both sheets ordered.

Looking fwd to the "Shifting Sands" sheet, especially the F-111E. Been looking to try and get markings together to make this one, now they are on a sheet. Many thanks for doing this. Would it be possible to do some of the Sand/Brown Ch-46s that were used in Op Desert Storm?

Question. Can a C-5A be build from this C-5B kit?
