Something that has been fully forgotten by aftermarket companies and that is at best average in most kits: the wing folding mechanism and hinges of naval planes and more particularly of the jets.

Many sets could be done for the old 1/32 Harrier. To me the most important one would be an insert to replace the pre-production front exhaust fairings! I would immediately buy three sets of them.

And cockpit interior and a seat, please

The subject deserves a state of the art new kit: GR.1/3, Trainer, Sea Harrier, AV-8A.

Could't agree more 

[thierry laurent]

Indeed! I have yet to understand why some cold war european icons such as the Harrier, Jaguar, Buccaneer, Draken or Mirage F-1 are systematically put aside by most companies...?

Reposted, as I did a mixed era bag in the WW2 scrounge list:

 

ResKit, please do your A-7E kit or a complete Trumpy revamp set

And the rest of the F-111A/E. 

 

Iain, please resume work on your Lightning sets. The Trumpy Frightenings seem available once more. 

 

Anybody, please do the open F-4E gun breech cover, preferably with (etched?) louvres; 

and IDF/AF F-4E fwd right extended AIM-9D/G launch rail. 

 

Airscale, please do a generic 1960s-present bang seat etch buckles set. (The straps we can cut from coloured paper)

 

Videoaviation: please resume sales to the UK once the local post office reopens! Grazie molto!

A-7C conversion?

[Anthony in NZ]

I think I’m going to have to echo a couple of others here.TA-4 Skyhawks please…… cockpit tubs, canopy details etc

Oh and while we’re at it, how about some nice upgrades for the Revell Bk-117, Ec-145 and Airbus 145?

 

cheers Anthony

An OA-4M cockpit with all the additional boxes is also missing for ages...

Reskit have already announced they are doing their A-7 sets for 1/32 as well. On Facebook they recently re-confirmed when someone asked.

 

Just goes to show what they can do when they throw their love on a subject. A-7, Mirage 2000, F-105, CH-54 Tarhe, OV-10... I hope they will chose the Trumpeter F/A-18 Super Hornet Family next

Not 100% sure, but I believe Reedoak has these. 

 

[ulvdemon]

I just checked, I know of Reedoak, was hoping for another vendor to do this also. 😁

Reedoak figures are superb.
