F/A-18E Super Hornet VFA-31 (Hasegawa 1/48)


Recommended Posts

Hi!

 

I recently finished a F/A-18E of the VFA-31 in the AnniversaryLivery from 2010.

Kit is the Hasegawa kit in 1/48.

Aftermarket items used:

  • Decals are from Afterburner Decals.
  • Quickboost Seat
  • Quickboost ECS vents
  • Phase Hangar seamless intakes
  • Eduard GBU-38
  • Wolfpack ATFLIR pod
  • Tamiya AIM-9X, AIM-120 and GBU-12 (from the F-16 kit)

 

I had an accident in the final stages of the build. Something hit the canopy from above and left a crack. Furthermore, the HUD was dislodged. It did get lost in the airframe, and I only found it and managed to reattach it after taking the pictures.

The build thread is here:
