Dave Williams Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 3 hours ago, Luca said: have Italian TF-104M ever carried Aspide missiles on the additional wing pylon typical of the S version? Anybody know? No, they did not, nor did they have any of the extra pylons, or other S modifications. In fact, the TF-104G-M modification removed any combat capability from the two-seater, including any weapons wiring, and removed weapons modes from the radar. They were flying trainers only.

SharkOwl Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) Here is an interesting photo album from Italian modeller Sario Bassanelli Rizzi !

Menelaos Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 at last.... but looking at the official pics, why are the radar screens covered in the cockpits...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotsman Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 A more interesting point re this kit is its RRP in the uk of £99.99 - I know discount suppliers exist, but that is still far too steep for the contents of the box.. or is that just me! colinR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alaninaustria Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 She’s going for a reasonable price here: https://www.axels-modellbau-shop.de/katalog/en/italeri-2509-lockheed-tf-104-g-starfighter-1-32.html No association to this vendor other than it’s one of my preferred online-shops!
