All the ones I loaded were bare metal, Maybe some had some spray painted spots inside. I do remember one pod from another unit was dirty gloss white on the inside.

Keep in mind the A-10 exhaust actually consists of 3 components. The big piece that serves as continuation of the nacelle we referred to that as the aft cowl. The next portion which is painted, is referred to as the aft shroud and it is part of the engine whereas teh aft cowl is part of the airframe. The last part which is actually called the exhaust or tailpipe. that's the part that is actually exposed to the exhaust. The aft shroud is bolted to the tailpipe and there is internal structures to keep the "heat" from exhaust from damaging the aft shroud. that exhaust is unpainted and kinda brow

From what I read that was a test flight after a new OFP was loaded and they have to recertify all the weapons. Neat to see the SDB on the hog.

Anyone know who may sell spare sprues from Meng kits? I am looking for four of the Spice 1000 bombs that come in the F-35I kit. I asked Meng they were a no go, but I know some folks sell spare sprues. I know Isracast sells the Spice 1000 bombs but they area a bit pricey for 4 of them. Appreciate any help.

The usual canon is flares have red caps and Chaff has a off white caps. However, a lot of times the local ammo folks will spray paint the caps a different colors so they can track different lots.

Is that Insignia red? Also what blue are they using?

The sidewall air vents were changed during the INS upgrade. Not the LASTE mod.

The Thunderbirds F-4E and Blue Angels F-4J Thread
boom175 replied to Ben Brown's topic in Jet Modeling
Great thread!! learn something new everyday!! Didn't know about the reinforcing plates on the demo team jets and there different shapes than the "normal ones we have seen on USAF and allied jets. Need some drawing for the TBird and BA plates. -
Does the Fine Molds Thunderbirds F-4E come with the Sparrow missile bodies?
