B-ONE27 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Did a search and didn't see anything but are there any 1/48 decals available for F-4Ds in Hill II? I recall a couple decal makers saying they were going to produce them, just can't remember and wanted to make sure I didn't miss them- does anyone make Jayhawks and Capital Guardian F-4Ds decals?

Ben Brown Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Years ago Ben Backes released a sheet for KS ANG F-4s in multiple camo schemes including a Hill Gray jet. I think it was way back before he started Fox One Decsls. Cutting Edge might have done a sheet with a DC ANG F-4. Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scooby Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Speed Hunter Graphics has 1/48 Hill Grey ANG F-4Ds. I don't believe they do Jayhawks of Capital Guardian F-4s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I've been waiting for the ZM D-model kit to arrive. I have the KS jets with nose/gear door artwork, and/or MiG killers, as well as the DC jets. They'll be released soon. Jake www.reidairpublishing.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I live in Kansas and would love to do KANG jet. I also used to live in NY. Any chance of a Niagara Falls jet with the blue and green water fall? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jefropas Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Sadly the new ZM D doesn't have any late model mods on it, which is fine for Kansas, but crappy for building a lot of D's... Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jeff Oooh, I've been wondering about that. No late-model RHAW for the nose fairing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The only one I have a complete walk around of is a Hill II jet that had nose art drawn on its nose gear door for its journey from New York to Davis-Monthan and retirement in 1990 via Wright-Patterson and Tulsa. I shot it as a kid on the ramp here at Wright-Patterson. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jeff The 184th had quite a mix of jets over their time flying the F-4. I know of at least 6 tail numbers of jets that had the RHAW mods.

jefropas Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I would just refer you to Jakes book for the mods, but externally just the HERPES bumps on the nose and tail are all that's really visible along with the chaff pods on the pylons and possibly hanging a Pave Spike on a few jets, and maybe the F-15 centerline tank, but all late D's flew with the tanks...it's not a lot...but enough, makes me wonder why they didn't just include em like Academy did...

Jeff Agreed Jeff, which is why I'm surprised there are none available..Guard and reserve units flew these aircraft during the twilight of their careers and although it was the era of subdued and toned down low vis markings, I still find them appealing.
