Gary V. Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 I am about to embark on building the Tamiya F-4J. Reading thru the instructions I see two parts (J 10 & J 11) and I was wondering what they represent? The instructions say they are optional parts. They attach to the sides of each intake. they almost look like refueling probes. Anyone know what they might be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudrat Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 They are Radar homing and warning antennas, found on all F-4J, N and Ss from the mid 1970s on to the end of USN/USMC operational service. The F-4Js supplied to the UK also had them. The parts are only optional if you are building an F-4J prior to the mid 1970s back to 1967 (when the J was created).

Gary V. Posted October 31, 2003 Author Share Posted October 31, 2003 Thanks! My first F-4j is going to be a Blue Angels plane from '69 - At least according to the Yellowhammer set I have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
