nachjager Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 (edited) Gents: Starting to build a 1/32 Revell F-4G, planning to do it as a 3rd TFW Weasel. Beside the GT F-4G corrections set, what ECM pod should I use? I read in the web that all Pacific and European F-4G units used the AN/ALG-131 pod but I have seen photos of Spang Weasels with the ALQ-119 pod. Thanks for looking. PD. Here is the source of my information: http://www.detailandscale.com/scale_model_review_revell_5994_f-4g_phantom_ii_wild_weasel_1.32nd_scale.html Edited November 5, 2018 by nachjager Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Depends on the era. If you're using the new Big Scale Weasels sheet from Speed Hunter, those jets used the ALQ-119 except for the Hill II jet. It used the ALQ-184. The only time the 3rd TFW jets used the ALQ-131 pods was during Desert Storm when the four E-models flew from Incirlik. Jake Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I am planning on using your Big Scale Weasels sheet, specifically the 3rd TFS Hill II jet. So, no ALQ-131 for 90 TFS jets, only ALQ-184. Tack så mycket! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 ALQ-184 it is. You can use the great pod from a Tamiya Viper but you have to modify the mounting lug locations for use from the F-16 to the F-4. Jake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ghatherly Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Sprue Brothers has the GT Resin ALQ-184 pod made for the F-4G with the mounts in the correct location. They also have the MAS ALQ-131 pod if you need one of those. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
