John @ WEM Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 We've finally begun our own in-house casting! First into production are our 1/72 RAF 1,000-Pound GP Bombs: These will be offered in packs of 2 as Pro 7205, priced at £2.99 including VAT, and in packs of 7 as Pro 7206, priced at £8.35. Pro 7206 is intended for use with the 1/72 scale Vulcan; each pack will fill one internal bomb rack on the Airfix 1/72 Vulcan kit. Each Vulcan has 3 racks, so a full bomb load consists of three packs of Pro 7206. Both items are now shipping, so place your order and get those aircraft armed!

thegoodsgt Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I'm curious if these bombs can be used with other British aircraft? (Pardon my ignorance.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John @ WEM Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 Should be good with any British aircraft that carry the 1,000-pounders, but I'll certainly defer to those with more RAF/FAA knowledge! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thegoodsgt Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Is it possible to use WEM's 1/72 1,000 lb bomb on aircraft other than the Vulcan? Steven Brown Scale Model Soup Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spike7451 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 The tail doesn't look right to me,the's no cut out in the center for the impelor.They're also slick,non retarded tail units,also the nose does't have the Mk-960 MFBF so they'd be all but useless on Tornado,Harrier or Jag after 1991,when the fuse came into service,unless you modify the nose shape.The 960 is fitted in a fairing that covers the nose forward of the yellow HE marker ring.
