RoyK Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Hi guys I'm just doing some research to see if there is any interest in 1/72 Resin 30mm Giat (Defa) Gun Pods for the MB.326 aircraft, specifically Argentine examples from the Falklands/Malvinas war in 1982? Obviously these would be for sale.. Would love to hear some thoughts or comments! Thanks Roy :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

El pibe vitina Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Well MB-326 used by CANA (Comando de Aviacion Naval Argentina or Argentinan Naval Aviation Command) were build Embraer Xavantes used 0.50 Cal gun pods Aermachi MB-339A used 30 mm gun pods !!! Right again Armando, the Argentine Navy MB-326 used to be fitted with 0.50 gun pods, while the MB-339 deployed in the Malvinas / Falklands where loaded with the DEFA pods. I know several modelers which are looking for the way to fit these guns in their MB 339. So this is a very good news RoyK! Bye for now... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RoyK Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 Hi Guys thanks for your feedback, Just a quick note, I meant the MB.339 (I was working on both kits at the time and mixed them up!) I'm going to start a fresh thread to correct this, The good news is these pods are almost ready and look sweet!! the starboard pod is complete already and the port pod nearing completion. Just a few more weeks and I'll be able to post pictures. Roy :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
