They were used for test dropping of weapons from those stations. So at some point it did test for instance the dropping of the BLU-27 from a TER (something Ive seen photos of) but beyond that. I cant find any evidence they were ever even taken to places where any of the jets were used. Not to say it didnt happen, but I cant find any evidence of it. Be that photos or even memories of people who worked those places. I cant find anybody who saw them in Vietnam when used there. When the Fs were at Mountain Home I believe they were in storage (at the base), however that is only going from th

Ever see a standard on a hornet before?

I wonder how many generations this puts the west behind Russia now. -

F-111D: Questions Concerning Loadouts and Capabilities
ElectroSoldier replied to Specter1075's topic in Research Corner
If you are using the shoulder pylons for the AIM-9 then it will be the P model with the cranked arrow front fins, if its mounted to the pylon then they were AIM-9L/M models. -
Looks Like Klaus has finished his alimony payments Looking at that lot its easy to see why Cutting Edge had such a good reputation in the business. There are some wonderful subjects on those sheets.

They were planted before that, that is just when the physical manifestation of rejection started in some quarters. I was there many times over the years in many different places in the country... Its come to far and Im no longer listening. Ive little if anything to say about it anymore, especially here on this forum, I come to enjoy models.

Do you mean in 2014 or 2022? Be careful with the answer because depending on what way you go with that determines what part of your idea falls apart. No I said what I meant. You dont get to decide for me, you dont get to rewrite my words. You can call it how you want to, it doesnt change what is happening, and I no longer care what people like you think because what will be will be and its becoming clear there is little to nothing you can do about it.

Ive receieved several packages from Ukraine since the start of the SMO and none of them have been subject to import taxes into the UK. Which is odd as before they were always taxes to pay that were doubled up with admin fees.

Yeah Im starting to get the idea the kit doesnt actually exist in reality in spite of the listings on web sites. Can you look at this, with particular refrence to the sprue with the nose parts on and tell me if it can build a version with the SLAR nose MiG-25RB/RBS "Foxbat-B/D" Kittyhawk 80113 (super-hobby.co.uk)

It is Kitty Hawk not ICM. I bought this. Kitty Hawk Model 1/48 Mikoyan Mig-25RB/RBS # 80113 | eBay But what turned up was this. MiG-25RB/RBT Foxbat, Kitty Hawk KH80113 (2018) (scalemates.com) Looking at the scalemates site the RBS kit doesnt seem to exist at all. Hannants had the RB/RBS kit photo on their site but having emailed them to confirm what it is it turns out it is the RB/RBT kit. If the KittyHawk RBS version doesnt really exist outside of that box art is there an RBS kit at all? The colour cockpit panels decal do label it as an R

Im looking for some help with the Kitty Hawk MiG-25 kits of the RB/RBS and RB/RBT What is the difference between these two kits as I cant seem to see any at all apart from the S which doesnt seem to be covered in the RBS kit at all.

Panels Open or Everything Buttoned Up
ElectroSoldier replied to Drifterdon's topic in General Discussion
I used to build jets and other such aircraft as though it was just about to go on some kind of "live" missions, but these days I much prefer to have some panels opened up, with control surfaces on show, wings folded etc etc. Showing as much of its workings as possible, be that accurate in any particular situation or not. -
Or you could search the name on google and click the ebay site link that comes up. I tried it and it worked for me.

I managed to bag a Kitty Hawk1/48 Mig-25RB/RBS # 80113 today. I also found out that while the jet is an RBS the point of the monument is the missiles it is carrying as they were made by the company which is the other side of the park this monument is in. The opposite corner has a prototype Kh-22 monument.

I seem to remember the Monogram kit is the only one with an accurate wing but over all the Hasegawa kit takes the win because while the monogram kit is accurate overall its isnt that great.

I started building 72nd scale because thats pretty much all there was back then. Over the years there were more 48th scale options to build so I built them but still built 72nd scale too, then 48th scale seemed to become as popular as 72nd scale at least for the more popular aircraft and now 32nd scale is where 48th scale was in the early to mid 90s. Armour I build mostly 35th because all the other things I have are 35 and its a nice size of model. Except I bought a Russian missile launcher that was a lot bigger than I thought it was going to be. I dont often build cars

Worth waiting for however long it takes.

Why did the pilot eject?

Yeah you handle these situations by not putting yourself into them. I assume that during your induction to the company you were given a talk about the hazards of the chemicals you will be working with. I would suggest you take those warnings as all substances you touch will be harmful to you in some way. Never touch anything without your gloves on. If they dont provide you with work gloves (which they are legally obliged to do) then get some yourself, because you will regret it if you dont. I work with chemicals ever single day at work, and even on days wh
