Jennings Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I've searched the forums with no luck. Is there a thread somewhere that gives what parts are found in what boxings of the AFV Club 1/48 F-5E? I want to do an early build airplane with the original radome and the original LERXs. Tks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gb_madcat_sl Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 The parts you seek are in the initial release of the F-5E and Moroccan F-5E kits. Alternatively you can rob them from their initial F-5F also. Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 So do the other boxes not have them at all? The cheapest one I can find is the Swiss limited edition (bizarre as that is). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dehowie Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 No they don't only the original boxing had the USAF lex parts. There is one other kit which had them but can't remember right now. If you check 1999 in meantime they gave the pics of the components list I think. You need sprue N. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dehowie Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 The new release with the Top gun Mig-28 has the Air Force lex.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FAR148 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Does this help? :unsure: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/search?typ1_c=102&cat=&state=&sold=0&sortid=0&searchkey=1%2f48+afv+f-5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
druss135 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 As was said above, the black AFV MiG-28 release has sprues for early and late radomes and LEX's. It also has options for earlier or late ejection seats and early or late cockpits instrument panels. I'm using it right now to build a USAF Aggressor from the 1980's and everything needed is there. For USAF, use the instrument panel without the RHAW gear instruments. I recommend an aftermarket seat. I got the Quickboost F-5F which comes with two "late" seats, so I'm good for another F-5E.
