Tony T Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Looks like the 1/32nd scale Tanmodel prognosis is extremely good... http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234967245-tanmodel-172-148-132-projects/page-2 2°/ - 1/32 - NORTHROP F-5A - NF-5A - CF-116 & RECCE VERSIONS - #3301 3°/ - 1/32 - NORTHROP F-5B - NF-5B - CF-116D - #3302 4°/ - 1/32 - NORTHROP T-38A - T-38M "ARI" - #3303 5°/ - 1/32 - MC DONNELL DOUGLAS F-4E - RF-4E - RF-4E "ETM" - F-4E 2020 - F-4E KURNASS - F-4EJ - RF-4EJ - F-4F - #3304 7°/ - 1/32 - GENERAL DYNAMICS F-111B - F-111C - F-111E - F-111F - #3305 The news of a new Recce Rhino and Aardvark is particularly heartwarming. I find the F-111B an unusual choice, but it does look groovy with six AIM-54 missiles and the Phoenix emblem on the fin. I'd be up for a B, E and F. I'm guessing that's a 4-5 year programme (and omits their 1/72 & 1/48 concepts) Tony Zero77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAGNEW Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 have they ever released a kit i can look at? the 1/32 F-111 sounds very interesting indeed.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) http://www.tanmodel.com They've released the 1/72 Hurkus and are currently working on a 1/72 Buccaneer (and I thought a 1/48 RF-84 but they may have sold the CAD drawings ?) If they do a half-decent 1/32 RF-4E and F-111E they are getting my money. Should be accurate as they have been granted permission to use LIDAR to scan the jets. F-111 is obviously not local but big in Turkey because of numerous USAFE WTDs to Incirlik from EGUL/EGUA in the 1970s-1990s + of course Op Proven Force. The curiosity is giving the F-111 B, C, E & F options. If that's in one box, it means translating cowl and Triple Plow intake options + standard and extended wings which would make a Vietnam A possible. Any way, it's a few years down the road.

Yes, very sad. Appears to be either a mid-air or CFIT in heavy fog. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero77 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 This forthcoming great subjects (F-5 family and F-111, that's crazy !) are very good news counterbalanced by very sad news for the turkish crews... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vince14 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I hope the F-5s turn up, I'll look to do one in Botswanan markings if they come to pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royboy Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 have they ever released a kit i can look at? the 1/32 F-111 sounds very interesting indeed.......... To be honest Glen I'd only get really pumped about an F111 in 1/32 if you'd announced it!! The other guys are almost totally unknown and haven't delivered very much have they. Really excited about the Sabre Dog coming now, the OV-10 was a delight to look at and the next one I'm pumped up for is the F11-F Tiger, so keep 'em coming!!!
