I was talking to a RIO from VFA-2 at the Travis AFB Air Show a few weeks ago (VFA-2 brought two Fs for display). Her response to the same question was that the Fs do the fast FAC role as a unique mission set as the second crew member comes in handy. They can work the radios and the sensors and the pilot can focus on flying.

THAT's F-ing HOT!!! -
ACE in Berkeley still has models. Hobbies Unlimited in San Leandro is still around too.

Nice!

The Academy F-4 MER/TER are very basic. Why not Hasegawa?
-
Eduard's MERs are too short. Their own bombs won't fit. Aerobonus is another option. I don't know about TERs. I ordered Eduard's.

Head over to downtown Napa and check out Loose Caboose Hobbies. Do some wine tasting while you're at it!

I can't help with decals but Hasegawa is the go-to kit for Skyhawks, especially the early versions like the A-4B. I suspect there are aftermarket decals available for Argentinian birds.

Academy

I'd be interested in Academy's efforts if I were looking for a 1/72 Super Bug. They have an E, an F, and a G.

Wolfpak has their CAG bird on one of their sheets. -
Cool, thanks.

Joe, out of curiosity how did this work out? I’m looking for a custom printer too. I tried decision height but I’m not happy with the result.

The LAU-7 and Y rack are clearly white in this pic

Thanks for the write-up. I have one of these kits en route. I've got the Sword TF-9J, F3D, FJ3, T-28C, and now this F3H and I'm looking forward to getting into them!
