MESHER Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Very sorry, I meant to say the F-22A is not going to receive future funding. I think there was a total of 187 aircraft and I guess the future is up in the air. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkW Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 The funding is not up in the air. While the program was capped at 187 tails, there is a major effort underway to upgrade the system running in the billions of dollars. It will be around for a long time...and improved over its life.

B sin Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 It's nice to see Hasegawa release a new jet kit in 1/48 but why a jet that is no longer going to be in service? It would be nice to see something new or redue the F-15E and do a F-15I like Academy did. I really wish they ( Hasegawa ) would do a MiG-29 or a MiG-23 in 1/48th scale, before Trumpeter does, and screws them up. Brad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MESHER Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 And a nice 1/48 Su-27 and maybe some Tornado's also. Would also like to see some new mold 1/48 Tomcats from someone like Tamiya. I know Hobby Boss is doing them but there kits are hit and miss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shion Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 This is a good thing not bad Say it to all people who try to build a Hasegawa tomcat or the nose of the Hasegawa superhornet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Definit1 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 You must buff the Mr Metal Color to make them shine.Super metalic ones are more conventionnal "aclad" equivalents. I was just wonderning if the Rapotor Sheen would be used for this type of buffing paint, or would it even be necessary? I just have no clue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Definit1 Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Ok, I just found that out. I'm a dummy. When's the formula commin' or is there a better paint procedure than Mr. Ratromel? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
