CD72125 - 1/72 C-130 International - Part 1


Recommended Posts

Well I went ahead and bought two Zvezda 1/72 C-130 kits, one C-130H and one C-130J-30 (Herk C.4), so that I can swap engines between them and create a KC-130T-30 and a KC-130J, both in USMC markings.  I already have the IFR pods to add to these projects.  Which now leaves me with a dilemma of what to do with my two Italeri/Testors C-130E/H kits previously assigned to these projects.  I already have the Attack Squadron extended sponsons & T56-15 engines for a late H model.  So, Kursad, I hope you are diligently working on some colorful and distinctive international C-130Hs.

Kind regards,

Dutch

This scheme was the C-130H original glossy paint as when delivered in 1979. There are other photos of aircraft with the scalloping along the engine cowls as well.
