Hasegawa KA-3B Skywarrior


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Just almost finished building the magnificent kit of the KA-3B Skywarrior. in 1/72

I said almost, cause the inflight refueling probe, part J4 was allready broken in the box.

I've tried to glue it again and again, but is stays a very fragile item.

Is there a substitute in metal for this bird. I could not fine one on the web.

Can you please advice or help me.

Have a nice weekend

Best regards

Peter

Hi Peter,

      I had the same problem too. As far as I know, there is very little aftermarket for this kit. I just took a piece of same size brass rod, cut it to length, and glued the tip of the probe from the kit on the end of the rod. It worked like a champ, and is very resistant to future breakage. HTH, Fred K.

Here you are. Not completly finnished. Still some minor decals to do and the red lining of the landing gear doors, and the wingtip lights a.s.o.

The decals are from Aero Master and of the kit itself. . Paints are mainly Humbrol and Tamiya .

Hope you like it allready
