I’ll try again, maybe it will be so clearer that I’m interested in: I'm planning to build the F-18 (E/F/G) Block 3 model and looking for some info, in particular, 1. which IRST was used (there seems to be 2 of them)? 2. how the nose section has changed (lengthened/widened/new anntennas)? 3. has operator's IP changed on a 2-seaters? 4. anything else from modeling perspective?

I'm making a resin conversion for it. It will include: -- conformal fuel tanks -- IRST sensor for the tip of the centerline fuel tank -- updated instrument panels -- saddle antenna on the spine The Block III will be different from the Advanced Super Hornet. The Enclosed Weapons Bay isn't going into production as far as I know, and the sensors aren't going to part of it either. I've been holding off until more definitive information comes out.

Rest of the time your description fits to a tee (i.e. you're right). Cheers, and keep making great parts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Regards Edward In your original picture, it's the SATCOM antenna on the spine. It's the same one as on the EA-18G Growler. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
