Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Fourth entry into my Wild Weasel lineup (already have F-100F, EF-105F and F-16CJ). Hasegawa 1/72 with Eduard cockpit panels, True Details seats and Master brass pitot probes along with Wolfpak decals. Special thing about this (to me, anyway) is the loadout. -HARMS from the Tamiya F-16CJ along with their pylon mountsT -IR Mavericks modified from the Hasegawa weapons set on partly-scratchbuilt launch rails -ALQ-131 on a scratchbuilt adaptor -Sparrows in the aft wells Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted August 3, 2017 Author Share Posted August 3, 2017 Thanks everyone! The Sparrow decals are just the Hasegawa Weapons Set kit decals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
picknpluck Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I really like it. But some critique: 1. It could just be the pictures, but the paint on the fuselage sides looks rough 2. The gunship grey/neutral grey demarcation is a hard edge on the nose section from pics I've seen and a softer edge in the intakes. You got the intakes right, but you continued with the softer edge on the nose section. 3. From your pictures, it looks like you used the older style centerline tank. By 91, I believe the USAF Phantoms had switched over to the F-15 style tank. Otherwise, a fine and clean build! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Regarding #2, on this particular bird it was a soft sprayed edge on the forward fuselage, so in this case it is accurate (see photo below). As far as the tank, I was under the impression that was the correct tank, but I could very well be wrong. Thanks again! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
