Marcel111 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I will need to scratchbuild the smaller version of the common Elta ECM pod for my Alaskan splinter F-16C build. I have all the usual pics found online but does anybody out there have close-up, especially of the back? Here is the pod I am referring to: https://media.defense.gov/2012/Feb/14/2000178732/-1/-1/0/120214-F-QZ836-133.JPG https://media.defense.gov/2012/Feb/14/2000178728/-1/-1/0/120214-F-QZ836-165.JPG The smaller one: http://www.iai.co.il/sip_storage/files/7/27537.pdf Thx, Marcel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Hog Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Hi Marcel, If you open the files in Adobe Camera Raw and then open the shadows you will have a much clearer pict of the Pod. Front and back appear to be identical; Dick Marcel111 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel111 Posted January 10, 2018 Author Share Posted January 10, 2018 Hi Marcel, If you open the files in Adobe Camera Raw and then open the shadows you will have a much clearer pict of the Pod. Front and back appear to be identical; Dick Thx Dick. Would still be nice to get some back pics. There are three little air intakes at the front, what comes in must go out so would like to see how the air vents at the back of that pod. Cheers, Marcel Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Here is a RSAF F-5 with a pair of pods: no back view though. Jari Marcel111, Kagemusha and Harold 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel111 Posted January 10, 2018 Author Share Posted January 10, 2018 Thx Jari! I did find this pic, I can probably work with this if nothing else: http://c8.alamy.com/comp/CW8081/an-f-16-fighting-falcon-assigned-to-the-18th-aggressor-squadron-takes-CW8081.jpg Cheers, Marcel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck540z3 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 (edited) I feel your pain Marcel. When building the bigger version for my F-15C, getting detailed pics was impossible, so I just had to wing it with what's out there. Here's one that you may have already. Note the lower vent at the left, which appears to be at the front of your first pic- so could this be the rear on the right? I think so.... https://jjamwal.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/cimg2771.jpg Cheers, Chuck Edited January 10, 2018 by chuck540z3 Harold and Marcel111 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
