Shawn M Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 sigh, they didn't correct the MLG extension Remind me again why this needed a whole new kit (asking seriously as I cant recall the dif's between the 2 airframe model #s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Smitty44 Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) Actually, I am more impressed by the scale concrete and puddle. Now that I won't buy one though. Thanks!! Edited May 31, 2017 by Smitty44 Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oyoy5 Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Well that's sucks a whole lot. Same kit as the A-7 by the looks of it what did they change other than the radar???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I have the first kit and I will need to look more closely at the differences to decide if i want this variant. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esarmstrong Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) Well that's sucks a whole lot. Same kit as the A-7 by the looks of it what did they change other than the radar???? This particular A-0 is a prototype and has a different canopy. Specifically, the rear section is bulged upward, whereas all other production aircraft had streamlined canopies in the rear. Also, the engine nacelles were slightly shorter on A-0's so as to accomodate a slightly smaller coolant container. Whether Revell has actually shortened the nacelle's is another matter... Actually, as far as Heinkel He 219's go, this is probably the most famous one to ever fly. It's the aircraft flown by Werner Streib in 1943 that shot down four Lancaster's and a Halifax in one night! The aircraft crashed on landing, but Streib and his radio operator survived the crash.

Chek Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) I'll state flat out I have no interest in the model. I built the FROG one while still at school, and that fully satisfied my curiosity about the type. But I will add that getting all those dipoles perfectly in line from every perspective must be a biatch of a job, and one that Revell's featured model builder failed at. Not saying it's fair, but on such sixpences, sales turn. Edited May 31, 2017 by Chek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee White Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 The aircraft crashed on landing, but Streib and his radio operator survived the crash. True. Streib stated that an electrical failure caused the spring-loaded flaps to suddenly retract and resulted in the crash. So, modeling them down might not be accurate.

oyoy5 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Hope we can find out if the nacelle is shorter. That's he biggest issue with the A-7 nacelle being incorrect and very hard to fix for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisK89 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 I'll get one of these for sure. Let's just hope it will be around 50€/$ like the A-7 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
