a4s4eva Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 It has been a couple of hectic weeks now, after finishing the Viggie I dove into the Mitsu F-1 speed build.So far I´ve only opened the box...as I said I´m gonna savour this build and it looks like fun! Does anybody have a clue on a pretty standard load out for the A-7 during Desert Storm by any chance? That´s all for now....see ya´ll Cheers! looks good so far. Some loads were 4 X Mk-83's. (off the parent racks) This seemed pretty common 2 or 4 x HARM's, 6 x Mk 20's (2 X 3 bombs on a TER) 8 X Mk 83's (2 X 3 bombs on a TER with 1 bomb on each other Rack 131 Walleyes were also used by the A-7's . Not sure how many per airframe though (1 or 2). Also MK 84's and Mk 82 were carried The A-7 Sqn's seemed to fly with only 4 racks instead of the usual 6 because of rack shortages Also after the first few days they only carried 1 AIM-9L/M Drop tanks were sometimes used. Often with HARM shooters and CBU carriers A good reference is Internation Air Power Review Volume 1. I built a Gulf war A-7 a few years back it can be seen HERE Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Aigore Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 So I managed to find some time to actually do something on the Corsair today.....or rather so I thought :) I thought I had an entire weekend off for once but yesterday I spent in the model shop putting on decals. "Oh well" -I thought "I´ll have the whole of Sunday to enjoy my build" BIG MISTAKE!! I started oogling the pieces and set out to do something about the cockpit and the bang seat....I searched for ref online for the JSU-8A bang seat here´s a good place to look for seats BTW... Bang seats Well so I started picking on the seat and then I shot some Aircraft grey in the tub...I noticed that the rear of the tub were black so I had to mask off that area. It turned out OK It´s really nice the way the black primer accentuates the details.... Anyways that was as far as I got before the called from my ordinary job and ordered me in!! :) So nice of ppl to ruin my weekend :( Now my only day off next week is wednesday and after that it´s tuesday the week after .....Helluva month this Cheers!

Spooky 01 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Dispite Your mis-furtune You've still been able to make a little progress... And it's looking mighthy fine, as usual...!!! :) "Check Six....." Spooky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JMan Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Love that cockpit. I think the next time I do something like this I will get the aftermarket cockpit, but since the canopy is going to be closed I figured no one looking would be able to view the great detail... I think mine looks pretty good, thank goodness for future, at least that will make the canopy nice and clear so you can see it. Ill get some pics on my thread soon!
