  1. Do all of the Israeli F-15C' have the feathered exhaust, or would there be a chance that some have featherless exhaust? Wanting to do a Tamiya 1/32 F-15C using all kit parts without aftermarket for a change. Like the look of the featherless anyway. Thanks for any insight,

  2. I'm looking for a canopy paint mask for a 1/48 Hasegawa f-14B. I see eduard makes them for the F-14A and D models. Is there a difference in Hasagawa canopies for the A,B and D models or will a A mask work on a B ect? Thanks for any assistance. Was going to use the color Eduard instrument panel but also only in the A and D models. Will probably use the Aires or Black Box pits on this build? Thanks,

  3. The original release of the Tamiya Tomcat was for an early F-14A. It only has the early style gun vents, lacks the TCS set under the nose, no pitot on the nose, and has an early beavertail without the ECM bump. The 1994 boxing updated the kit somewhat with the later gun vents, TCS, ECM bumps, underfuselage bomb racks and Mk.82 bombs, and slightly more detailed exhausts. The original boxing is OK if you want to do an early F-14.

    What years would this Tomcat kit represent?

    Thank you again

  4. I have been offered a 1/32 Tamiya F-14A kit #6301 from a friend for about $90.00. Been wanting one for awhile now, however I can only find the prices on the 1994 version. Are the original kit and the 1994 version have a major difference. Is this a resonable price for the kit? I am wanting to build an A model air to air only, no bombcats. As far as decals go I have not decided what to use yet, if I purchase the kit. Any assistance or advice would be greatly recieved. Thanks

  5. Building my second 1/32 F/A-18C from Academy. Having a decal and armerment mental block! Decals not that big of deal, however my first bird is out fitted with smart bombs and sidewinders. This bird I want something along the lines of fleet air defense? Mainly/totally air to air. Any photos out their to assist of a bird in this configuration? Not finding many myself, wondering if the Hornet C model was positioned in this role much? As for time period, not an issue. Anything from the early 90' to present for me with the decal option. Thank you for any assistance available,

  6. Wondering, having never built one, if the Academy 1/35 AH-1W NTS updated? version would build into an accurate version using the eduard photo etch kit? Any opinions on this one. I don't forsee any AH-1' coming out in the near future. I would love to see an AH-1F/S in 1/35, that would be the shiznit. Thanks,

  7. Looking for the best out of the box builds on the A-10A, F-15E and F-16C. Wanting to build a trio of all three. I have the Has 1/72 F-15C, good build altogether with that one.

    Thanks,

  8. What mods would be necessary to turn the Academy 1/32 F-16CJ into an IAF F-16. Can one be built straight out of the box, minus the decals? If not is there a conversion available. Wanting to build one obviously. Thanks in advance.

  9. Wanting to build, but in the process of researching airfields for a Corsair Diorama. I have a 1/48 Tamiya F4U-1A on the way with intentions of purchasing a second along with O scale shacks, Tamiya/Hasegawa Jeeps and equipment for a roaring 1/48 PTO diorama with palms, sand ect. My question is about airfield surfaces. Were they all PSP or were there asphalt/concrete/rock/coral ect? I suppose I could purchase some 1/48 psp but the diorama will be 16" x 20" (alot of photoetch psp). Any suggestions or offerings for reference site with photos of just the airfields or airfields with a/c on them? Have been looking on the Inet but so far no luck. Thanks for all of the help,

  10. 1st. In 1/72 are the Revell and Italari MH-47E kits the same? If not which proves to be the better more accurate kit?

    2nd. The Italari 1/48 new CH-47C, Does this new release come with weapons? .50 cal ect?

    Will there be a 1/48 MH-47E in the future?

    Thank you,
