jenshb started following Missile Launcher question., Which is the best f 111 aardvark kit, Norwegian F-5 grey colour and 6 others
-
Some versions of the Hasegawa kits have also been released by Hobby 2000 and should be available.
-
Yep, same colour as the F-16s.
-
This is some of the crispest and cleanest modelling I've ever seen...

1/72nd Zvezda AC-130J "GHOSTRIDER" 4th SOS
jenshb replied to A-10 LOADER's topic in In-Progress Pics
For an in flight propeller aircraft I think it looks better with the spinner sanded smooth than seeing stationary blades. The camera on a short shutter speed may freeze the blades, but what your eyes will see is just a slightly darker than ambient circle. -
New tool F-16AM MLU in 1:48 announced by Kinetic
jenshb replied to falcon91352's topic in Jet Modeling
In this period, the RNoAF aircraft would with a very high level of certainty have the strengthening plates on top of the wing roots (just ahead of the flaperons) and a small plate just below the canopy hinge. The former were added in the mid-late 80s, the latter would be added in the mid-80s. None of these are included in the kit, although the latter is easy to make from a bit of Evergreen plastic strip. The short answer to your question is therefore "no". -
BAM News - Universal intakes for the Hasegawa 1/48 Phantoms released!
jenshb replied to arnobiz's topic in Jet Modeling
A lot of people have the Academy/Minicraft kit that also could need an intake like this.... -
I just looked at pics, not the instructions....😁
-
The nose is too blunt - compare with the photo of the real thing - it starts to taper behind the front wings - the 3D print tapers in front of the front wings. And I believe the Penguin has only one aperture for the rocket motor.
-
The Tamiya F-14 kit instructions tell you to paint them Sky Grey - as well as the radomes for the Phoenix missiles. Presumably someone at Tamiya have interpreted the dirt on old and well weathered Sparrow radomes as a medium grey and set the paint code XF-19 when I'd say Deck Tan would be more appropriate for a slightly dirty white finish...

When the acronyms get their own acronyms..:) Thanks Murph.

Second that - always have had good service from Arnaud, and great products. -
The Block 30 and 40 conversion kits I know of include 4x 16S210 launchers which are not AMRAAM capable, so I'd say no AMRAAM.
-
The 16S210 launcher can only carry Sidewinders. The LAU-128 (or is it 129) launcher - blunt end and rounded nose can carry both Sidewinders and AMRAAMs.
