Scale32 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Hi fellow modellers, I was wondering if this variant of the Phantom was kitted in 32nd scale. If not what do I need to make it happen, kit, conversion set etc? Thankyou for any feed back. Cheers Bevan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmel Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 There is no QF-4E available in, any scale, that's really a QF-4. You'll need to source the cockpit and airframe mods by scratch building them. If you can find a copy of The Modern Phantom Guide, it has photos and descriptions on all mods for the QF-4E, QF-4G, & QRF-4C.

Coors 54 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 I'm no expert on the Q version of the F-4E and as far as I am aware there is no kit available of it but isn't it a drone/target conersion so most of the differences are internal (black boxes and wiring) to enable unmanned operation? Externally it has new antenna fitted and a hi viz paint job. Should be a reasonably easy conversion of a late model E (or you could go G using the Revell kit) but getting to an accurate late model E is another story! I think Jake Melampys F-4 book has photos of a QF-4 of some description. Some of our 'Merican friends will chime in with more info I'm sure.

Shawn M Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 There are a lot of external shapes that differentiate the 'Q's' The spine antennae and missile warning antennae are easy to fab up, the one in the front sparrow bay is trickier due to its compound curves.
