Cameron Lynch Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I'm looking to build a 1/48 F-16I Sufa, which is missing the characteristic Isreali 600 gallon drop tanks which seem to be in every photo I can find of the Sufa. Apparently the Hasegawa 1/48 Mitsubishi F-2 kits includes this unique drop tank, along with it's equally unique pylon. I've got two choices. 1. Buy a copy of the F-2 kit just for the two droptanks and their pylons. Not efficient as I really don't want/need an F-2 kit and it seems a waste. The second option is to see if I can borrow a set the droptank pylon parts so that I can make some resin copies for personal use. If you have the F-2 kit and are willing to help me out, please drop me a line. I'm happy to reimburse you for shipping via paypal, and will promise to get back your drop tank/pylon parts in a couple of weeks. If you'd like I'd even toss in an extra set of resin tanks/pylons for your trouble. Thanks and best wishes. Cameron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
onescale Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Hello, maybe this is an option for you: http://www.luckymodel.com/scale.aspx?item_no=SW-48002 You get the tanks and a few useful other items at a cheap price!? Best regards, Jens Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Best regards, Jens Do they come with the correct pylons as well? If so, this would be a reasonable solution. Thanks Jens. Cameron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gary F Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Pylons are in that set. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scotthldr Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 The Isracast ones are a good choice as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Netz Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) Pylons are in that set. Just a note, the Sufa is the only IDF F-16 that carries the Aim-120's IDF Weapons Set No.2 Edited January 25, 2015 by Netz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cameron Lynch Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Thanks Dan for the PM and thank everyone for the help. I've ordered a set of the Skunkmodels IDF weapons. I think that will take care of me. Cameron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
