1/48 RF-101C conversion for Kittyhawk F-101A/C?


Recommended Posts

Koster and C&H (if they're still in business) made single-seat conversions for the Monogram F-101B. Koster's (F/RF-101A/C) is vacuformed and C&H's three (RF-101A/C, RF-101G/H, F-101A/C) are resin. Both companies' products are very nice, although I think Koster's canopy is better. Neither took into account the shape differences between the A/C's and the B's intakes, but then Kitty Hawk's kit also has incorrect B intakes. I don't know if these conversions will fit the KH kit. I once test-fit a Monogram nose piece to the KH kit, to see if I could fix the shape of the KH radome, and the Monogram part fit very well. It looked like the shapes of the two kits are similar enough that one of the conversions might be made to fit. Since the KH kit is already a mess, what's a little more work to get a conversion set to fit? :naughty:
