Dennis Buley Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 On the opening night of Desert Storm USAF Pave Low choppers led several AH-64As on an attack of Iraqi radar sites. I understand that the Apaches carried Hellfires, rocket pods and a single external fuel tank. I have two questions: 1. 4 Hellfires and two rocket pods or 8 Hellfires and one rocket pod? 2. Is the fuel tank available in 1/48th scale anywhere? TIA Dennis Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Williams Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 You can use the tanks from Blackhawk kits on the Apache. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cobrahistorian Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Dennis, From what I know, they went Hellfire-heavy, since they were engaging point targets. One pod, 8 Missiles and a tank would be appropriate. Tanks are available with any of the Academy 1:48th Blackhawks IIRC. In fact, I've got two spares if you want one.

I checked my stash and I have an HH-60G kit that I'll take the tank from. Dennis Quote Link to post Share on other sites
