Are there any post Cold War era AC-130H kits available? I'd like to build a late AC-130H from around the mid 2000s to their retirement. If I recall correctly the 20mm M61s removed at some point and the FLIR camera mounted on the left sponson was replaced with the AAQ-26 mounted under the nose. They also added what I'm guessing are antennas or ECM bumps on the sides of the fuselage just aft of the cockpit.

Hey guys, Having no knowledge whatsoever about the C-130, I'm trusting you guys to help me on this one. 😊 I'm thinking about the possibility to convert the Zvezda 1/72 C-130J-30 into a standard C-130J, wanting to do the current Blue Angels "Fat Albert". I can see the fuselage has to been shortened, but how much and where? Any other things that needs to be changed/addressed? Are there any decals available for the current Blue Angels C-130J? Thanks in advance! Regards, Nick

Minicraft 1:144 #14700 L-100-30 Ethiopian Cargo Herk Build
Dutch posted a topic in Airliner Modeling
I have decided to build one of my Minicraft 1/144 #14700 C-130J-30 Stretched Hercules kits as a civilian L-100-30 in Ethiopian Cargo markings. The build conversion is being documented on Scalemates at the following project link. Minicraft 1:144 Lockheed L-100-30 Hercules: Ethiopian Cargo ET-AJK. Scroll down for the build album. You may leave comments on SCM or here. Enjoy! Kind regards, Dutch -
Good Afternoon, I'm looking for parts 69 and 70 from the Minicraft C-130J-30 Super Hercules kit, the are the landing gear sponson extensions. Those parts are not required for that kit, as the extended sponsons are molded into the fuselage, and should be in somebody's spares box. Instructions are available here, and you can see what I'm talking about: Kit instructions on Scalemates I'm looking to use them to convert a baseline Herc into the YMC-130H in 1/144, should be an adventure! Thanks for looking and cheers! Hoops
