Benner Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Hi, does anyone other than Verlinden make the ejections seat for the Intruder in 1/48? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
A6BSTARM Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Yes, if you do a search for F-14 Ejection seats in 48th scale they will work just as well for you. The differences between the two are minor and are not noticable to any scale under 1/32. The differences, if I remember right, had to do with the rocket motors and the catapult rails and the timing circuts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VFA-103guy Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 (edited) Actually, there is a difference in size/shape in the 1/48 GRU-7 seats. I use Verlinden's F-14 version alot ( because I build alot of F-14's) and there are some minor differences in the size/shape. For starters, the F-14's seats are wider, especially at the base of the seat. The A-6 seats are narrower all around. Verlinden's GRU-7A seats for the A-6/EA-6B are the best and most accurate you can find. However, they do suffer from having the seat belts in the same position. True Details seats are off in terms of their size. They look nice in a Revell-ogram F-14, but that's about it. Edited December 16, 2005 by VF-103guy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kap64 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 (edited) Also, the F-14A seats have two ejection rings overhead and the A-6 has one. Edited December 16, 2005 by kap64 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
