ikar Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 I didn't know they ever made one. When I did a model of my wife's C-130 I had to make one out of either wood or layers of plastic I glued together. It wasn't that hard, try it. For all I know, I might still have it in my spares area. I also did the flight deck area as well as the aviaonics bay and some of the cargo area.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

aircommando130 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 The SKE dome was black on the SEA painted C-130E/H and was on top the airplane almost in line with the crew door/ just aft of the forward overhead escape hatch. It was painted gray when the Herk went to gray paint. It allowed the airplane to see itself and 3 other aircraft in the formation. So in big formations it would show the airplanes around you and help you keep your position. Most we flew was 3 ship in the MC-130...no SKE...all visual looking out the front and both paratroop doors. Cheers...RON Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ElectroSoldier Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Yeah its 128 and its on the sprue with the British IFR probe. I dont have that version of the kit buddy, only the older version without it. You need somebody with the Euro 1 camo C-130H on the box art I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
