I like it!, I have one in the stash and was wondering which scheme to build it in. Looks like the metallic one is the way to go! -

Excellent! You are building up a great collection of the special mission 135s -
Another great effort, thanks for sharing

Found it in a Reddit post by Jennings

That's right Paul, up to 26 airframes to be procured starting in 2025. Link to article

Good to know about the wing seam issue Fred, I've got an -800 and P-8 in the stash and will apply this reinforcement when I attack them.

Don't forget the UK are also getting 3 airframes. I have the Welsh Models kit which will do fine for me ( for now 😄 )

Another ouch! from me. On the bright side the decaling looks great! 🏆

1/72nd Zvezda AC-130J "GHOSTRIDER" 4th SOS
Trojan Thunder replied to A-10 LOADER's topic in In-Progress Pics
Looking like a Herc now, the props look good -
This is the original tooling of the 1/72 Airfix C-130 kit. I have built it as a USAF HC-130N CSAR aircraft or as the USAF puts it "the only dedicated fixed-wing Personnel Recovery platform in the Air Force inventory". To build the HC-130N I added a added consoles and cabinets to the cockpit Tasman Models AN/ARD-17 Aerial Tracker Radome, inflight refuelling Hose Reel units from Flightpath and propellors from an Italeri C-130 kit. I also added the observer windows in the main cabin, the recover system rails and flare chutes on the upper ramp door and various antennas as seen on the aircraft

The decals are from the C-130 Herc sheet by Caracal Models and walkway outline decals from an Italeri AC-130 ki
