GMK Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Nice rotor-hub mounted SATCOM antenna. First aftermarket idea for the new kit :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mike_45 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I will be getting one. My AH-1Z is ready for paint now. Any idea when this month they will be released? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brad-M Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) I like aircraft/armor used during the Vietnam War, so I'd be interested in a Huey that was used with the Air Cav units during that time. Would that be the UH-1D primarily? Thanks Brad Edited April 22, 2015 by Brad-M Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would that be the UH-1D primarily? UH-1D models were used initially. By '67-'68, they were being upgraded to UH-1H models. From about '68 onward, they were all UH-1Hs.

11bee Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Sorry, I meant 1/48 scale actually. Brad My bad, it was just in jest. Agreed, on a 48th scale Huey as well. Not my scale of choice but there isn't much out there currently. Hope we both get something in the near future! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
norbert Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Hi Good day today, just received a box of the Venom I already had the Viper, I can now start some figures to go along. the inside looks very nice, these new boxes are a step ahead from the SA-365 and from the SH-2F IMHO My thanks to Floyd, and all that were involved in this projet. I'm very happy with the increasing quality of Kittyhawk products, and yes, with this quality, they can step to 1/35 projects... 1/48 is also fine for me. got also this palet today with a well protected machine inside...

norbert Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 We need a 1/35 UH-1D...... too soon? :P/> Yes, too soon. And I know you all want a little gem à la Tamiya. That means drawing collection and measurements on real airframes is the first step that should be done properly... and the closest hueys from me are in Germany, Italy and Spain. I think some americans knows much more than myself on the subject, so I'm like you, let them work in the shadow and hope something comes. however, showing the interest helps certainly.

mike_45 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Does anyone have any idea when the UH-1Y will be available in the US? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Floyd S. Werner, Jr. Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Does anyone have any idea when the UH-1Y will be available in the US? Yes I picked up mine today direct from Kitty Hawk. The distributors should have them out by the end of the month. I can say this they are beautiful. I didn't have time to look at them in depth because of work commitments in Baltimore. I'm a cop, watch the news. Hopefully I'll get a good look tomorrow. You will not be disappointed. Another great kit. Now we need that UH-1D/H and AH-1G. Floyd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
