    What MERs were used on the A-10A in the 1991 gulf and what weapons did they carry on them and also did they use GBUs?

    in Jet Modeling

    Posted

    My other option is to convert into an A-10C.  I've got the big boys decal sheet from Reid aviation.  But I really wanted to do the A-10 that located a downed aircrew and flew around them defending them from Iraqi ground troops until thry could be rescued.  The A-10 markings for this machine are on the experts choice cecal sheet which I also have.  That A-10 pilot was one brave individual.  To make a model of his mount would be a fitting tribute to that pilot

     

    Thanks for the info 

    Wanted- 2 X KAB 500L russian guided bombs

    in Jet Modeling

    Posted

    I'm thinking of putting in two R-27 Alamos, 2Archer AA11s and two R60 aphids.  But I also want to arm it up with a couple of ground attack weapons.  I was thinking two KAB 500 L laser guided air to ground bombs as well. I think it would look good.  I think two FAB 500 bombs would look a bit basic. a couple of laser guided bombs would look good.  Syria is a testing ground so virtually anything could be carried to try out.  What you readers think?  Would that be. Good loadout?

    If anyone has two spate KAB 500 L laser guided bombs to sell or swap?  Could you PM me?

    As far as I know these bombs only come in the 1/32 trumpeter SU-25 kit.  No one makes them in resin to my knowledge

    Thaks for the info Stephen.  So what would be a good loadout to put on it. Mavericks on TERs?  I assume they only carried two mavs or mk 20s on TERs leaving the inner rack empty on the wing side?  So apart from mavs and mk20s, what else would they have carried and on what stations?  Did they carry mk 82 dumb bombs and snakdyes?  Did they carry a deep pod AN/ALQ 184 deep pods and ALQ184 deep pods?  and AN/ALQ 131 pods on the outerwing station where they normally would have carried a second sidewinder?  I want a make a mean loaded out A-10.  Do you have any pics of A full loaded A-10? Most pics I find now are of the A-10C in combat loads in afganistan.

     

    So what pods would you recommend

    Hi all

     

    I want to make an A-10 warthog from the 1991 gulf war.  Can anyone tell me what payloads they carried?  I know they carried mavericks, mk 82 dumb bombs, cluster bombs, sidewinders ect.  But did they Cathy any laser guided weapons such as 500 pounders, 1000 pounders, 2000 thousand pounders or any other munitions?  Also did they use MERs?  If so what type?  If anyone can give me a list of munitions they carried and what type of MERs, I would be very much appreciative.

    Many thanks

    Ma

    Ok so what loadout do you suggest I put on the Su-25?  It looks mean with 8m1 large rocket pods on it.  But i thought putting on 2 MErs with 8 incendary bombs on each rack, a couple of FAB 500s, a couple of RBK 250 275 AO1s and a couple of FAB 250-54 on a couple of FAB 500 Mk 62son it.  But S you say it's not a realistic loadout.  So what would suggest?

    I'll take Al! The A10 sets I can get as I love the A10 and will make a few versions including a ,an A10C.  I love ground attack aircraft so the A10 is my favourite.  I want to make a few versions of the A10.  Did the PW set interest you?  It's a great set and better than my resin set of the PW version I've ever seen.  But unfortunately I'm not a big F16 fan.  I just like the Sufa

    I have also books on the SU-27 and many other books on modern jet fighters which are excellent reference material I'm also happy to swap for an A-10 cockpit set.  If any one PMs me and I can list items and maybe come to an arrangement.  Im prepared to go to any lengths to obtain an A10. Cockpit set.  I also have a beautiful resin Pratt and Whitney small mouth intake together with flame holder, burner can, Engine cowling, CFTs, block 52 wheel (which is slightly thicker than the normal F16 wheel, vertical stabilators(tail) with different parts to make the tail you want, the front wheel strut for block 52, andtbe block 52 front wheel bay front door.  I'd more than happy to swap this whole set for the A10 cockpit set.  You can make any F16 block 52 using this resin set.  The set is made by eagle aviation and is simply awesome in detail.  It's made to fit the Tamiya F16CJ block 50 kit.  In you are interested in a swap, let me know ASAP and we can do it.  This set is worth about 140 USD on its own. Bel a swap would be a good deal.  If we did the swap and you weren't happy, I'd be more than happy to return the A10 cockpit set to you and no extra cost.  Let me know what you think. I'll also throw in a set of 2 of beautiful resin IRIS T missiles as well.

    Thanks for the reply.  The first gulf war.  But any of the cockpit sets will do as I can just convict them.  I'm really in need of a A10 cockpit set as this A10 is just my favourite and I'm desperately seeking a cockpit set.  Out of all the US ground support aircraft, this is the one I wAnt to built.  So I'm really appealing to try and get one.  As I said, I'd be eve prepared to swap a 1/32 fax jet for a cockpit set.  That's how mad keen I want one.  The A-10 is just a beast and I'm really really wanting to find a cockpit set and will go to any extinct to get one
