utley Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Looking for GBU-31 JDAMs, Mk-84s, CBU-87/97/103/105, needing a bunch of them to fill up 3 bomb bays on a B-1B. I cant find any supplier that has any of these, except Verlinden Mk-83s and Im not really interested in any of those. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Av8fan Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Found Attack Squadron GBU 31 Hannants No idea re accuracy etc etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh1971 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 The Hasegawa set D and E each have some GBU-31, but I doubt it's enough to fill up a B-1's belly. The only CBU-87/97/103/105 I know of is Shawn Hull's stuff, but I think his online shop is closed down right now. JB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JB Shawns site has been off for a while now...Ive only known it to not be offline for a brief 2 month period from last year. I wish he would come back though, I have a pretty large order Id like to place. Heck, Id take some of TwoMikes stuff too if he wasnt down as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
utley Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 Found Attack Squadron GBU 31 Hannants No idea re accuracy etc etc. Thanks...its pretty hard finding stuff like this right now. Wolfpack stopped producing theirs, I guess, this looks like a great alternative. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wright2626 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 hasegawa weapon set a has 2 mk 84 and i think 6 mk 83. not sure how many you need. might be able to let go of some of those. maybe a couple gbu-31 also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh1971 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Whew! Those look incredible from Hannants- but with (I thinnk) 8 on each rotary launcher? Yikes. I know what you mean about the resin guys' sites being down like that. I've had stuff I've needed for a while from each- but... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tobiK Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 CBU-87 and GBU-31 you find in the Kinetic F-16 weapons sprue. (Even when they call a CBU-87 "GBU"), and there is also decals for live weapons included. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Av8fan Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I think that tobik has a great idea. You may be able to get weapons sprues from Kinetic, or perhaps look in the completed builds here and other sites to see who has completed the Kinetic F-16 and offer to buy those pieces? In case Hanants isn't an option, there is ArmaHobby If your buying that many, maybe they could swing you a deal? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
utley Posted February 10, 2015 Author Share Posted February 10, 2015 Finding sprues with those weapons are almost impossible on Ebay, unfortunately. I was looking at ArmaHobby last night for those JDAMs, and yes Ill need to get at least 8 of them...and I might as well just throw my next paycheck at them too while Im at it. All of the sudden, those Black Box resin sets for the B-1B nozzles are cheap in comparison finally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tobiK Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Wow, never thought that it is so difficult!? Just try and post a new topic "Wanted: Kinetic F-16 Weapons 1/48..." If you will not have success, I could offer you some, but I have not enough quantity for you. Hmmm...OK, let my ask my plastic friends here around! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
utley Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 I just took a look at those sprues, the JDAMs arent as detailed as Id hoped they would be. Think I may stick with the Hannants GBU-31s. Might take a bite out of my wallet, but itll be a worthwhile investment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wright2626 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 never really seen the kit, how many of the bombs can you actually see well enough? maybe get the detailed ones for the ones you can really see, then some of the kinetic/hasegawa ones for the rest.

Josh1971 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 The rotary launchers can actually turn, so in theory, you could see all of them up in there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
