Here is the new CAD design for FL32-2000

We have made a big improvement to our 3D printed HUD for the Academy F/A-18. While this version will require a bit of surgery to your kit, it will provide better and more accurate details to the HUD assembly. We will be re-stocking Spruebrothers with the updated set by the end of the week and will have it on the web site by this coming weekend. There will be two sets. FL32-2000 F/A-18A/B/C/D HUD for BuNo's 161353 thru 163782 FL32-2015 F/A-18C/D HUD for BuNo's 163985 and Up (shown)

For those that have considered getting this sheet. We are down to 25 copies, Spruebrothers has 4 left and Hannants has 13. Neither retailer will be restocked.

Yeah, probably should have looked where you're from before providing a link!

Just curious

Well, it appears the interest is little to none. One response after 85 views isn't very comforting. Just want to thank everyone for saving me some time and money.

How many of you would be interested in 1/32 AGM-62 Walleye, along with the corresponding pods? We're currently in discussions with DACO to possibly use their 3D files to produce these weapons in 32nd scale. What say you?

The following is a joint announcement from the San Marcos 2020 Convention Leadership team and the IPMS USA Executive Board. We jointly appreciate all the feedback we received regarding this year‘s convention. We’ve taken your comments and concerns into careful consideration, while maintaining an ongoing dialogue and negotiation with the Embassy Suites convention center in San Marcos. These negotiations have been proceeding carefully due to the significant financial exposure that IPMS would be subject to if we simply decided to cancel the convention unilaterally. We are now prepared to announce that the 2020 National Convention is officially canceled. While this may disappoint many, including your authors, we believe it is the prudent, safe and sensible thing to do. On a more positive note, we have been successful in negotiating the use of the Embassy Suites San Marcos location for the 2023 convention. Therefore, the rotation for the next three years, circumstances permitting, will be Las Vegas in 2021, Omaha in 2022, and San Marcos in 2023. Tentative dates for the 2023 convention will be August 2nd through the 5th. We are currently finalizing details of the contract with Embassy Suites and expect a finalized version within a week. For those who have registered already for the convention, we will be processing your refunds. For those who have booked hotel reservations at one of the convention center hotels, it will be up to you to cancel those on your own. Vendors will be refunded their money for tables as well through our vendor coordinator, Craig Gregory. Chapters and individuals who have sponsored contest categories may also receive refunds for their sponsorships. Again, we want to thank you all for your patience and support during these trying times, and hope that you recognize we have made the best possible decision for all under the circumstances. For any questions please contact John Noack at: IPMSPresident@ipmsusa.org Or Len Pilhofer at: director.nats2020@gmail.com Respectfully submitted, Len Pilhofer, 2020 Convention Chairman John Noack IPMS USA President

Jake, I'm working on the rockets, APKWS and warheads now. If they work as planned, you'll assemble each rocket (the components can be painted separately) and simply slide them in the tube. Hoping to have the first test prints done by the end of the week.

This set includes two (2) Mk-83 1000lb bombs, two (2) BSU-85 fins and two (2) each of the following : M904 nose fuzes, Mk-43 TDD and MXU-735 Nose Plugs. The Mk-83 was the weapon of choice for the USN and USMC during Operation Desert Storm and was used extensively throughout the war. Yours truly built several dozen of them while deployed to Sheik Isa Air Base in Bahrain! Below is a quick build of the first batch that were produced. Refinements have since been made to the files and the production sets are much smoother. https://www.flyingleathernecksdecals.com/p/fl32-2003-mk-83-1000lb-bombs-with-bsu-85-fins
