Winnie Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I have an OV-10A in desperate need of two LAU-33/A launchers, the 2 rocket ones. I am planning a "Black Ponies" with 20 ZUNI rockets on it... Cheers H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ziggyfoos Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Ya, unfortunately the F-8 kits are the only option I know of. Really wish better aftermarket ones were made. OV-10s, F-4s, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill M. Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) Ya, unfortunately the F-8 kits are the only option I know of. Really wish better aftermarket ones were made. OV-10s, F-4s, etc. ...and F-8's! Even though the Trumpeter F-8E kits come with ZUNI launchers, they could certainly be improved upon. With Paul Fisher contemplating some additional F-8 aftermarket, including correct Y rails, maybe he could be persuaded to do some corrected ZUNI launchers as well to mount on them. Bill M.

Finn Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 You can always scratchbuild some: find some tube styrene of the right dia, some sheet styrene and for rocket heads, 1/35 122mm Russian ammo, Miniart has a set that comes with 6 boxes and 6 shells each of two types: Jari Youngtiger1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 You can go with the Trumpeter LAU-33 pod as a template: http://s1335.photobucket.com/user/emperorkai/media/Models/F-8E%20Crusader/IMG_5537_500_zps5c0b3e17.jpg.html it looks like one that was used as well, and looks easier to scratchbuild.

ziggyfoos Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Or alternative is asking on various forums if anyone wants to part with their unused ones from the F-8 kits since many would probably use the Sidewinders instead. I got mine this way. Winnie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
