lgl007 Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Hi gang, Is the Aires F-4G aftermarket resin pit accurate for a late model F-4G? I'm not sure if the cockpit changed over the years in any way or not... but I was just wondering as I am modelling a late model F-4G right before retirement. Thanks. -Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 I don't think it changed a whole lot, Greg. At least not something visible in model form. The jet changed from the AN/APR-38 to the -47 in early- to mid-90s (or was it earlier?), but I don't believe that did much for the cockpit's appearance, save for some switch labeling changes.

lgl007 Posted October 7, 2007 Author Share Posted October 7, 2007 Great ... thanks Jake... i was just wondering as the Hasegawa navigator instrument panel does not have the large portrusion behind the joystick that the navigator looks into... I'll have to scratch build that sucker. -Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
j-basset Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Based on your description, the large protrusion would be the rubber hood for the radar scope, which is a removable item. All the Hase F-4's rear instrument panels do not have the hood molded on.
