Non-LSP connection to 32nd scale.....

[Jack]

Just saw the

B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, Revell 1/72

 

in the non-lsp section, and i can still remember this kit being offered by Revell as the "real" B-2 bomber, and in the same respect lots of years ago revell was offering a 1/32 scale  F-"something" stealth fighter, lateron called the Loran design, and i was looking forward to it being released at a certain point in time that year, but alas it never appeared.It was presented as (what lateron would be the F-117) the upcoming stealth fighter in large scale, but i guess it was cancelled, though Monogram released just exactly the same kit in 1/48 scale....

Anyone know the follow-up story on this one?

...Testors “F-19”...

Put out in 1/48, 1/72 and possibly 1/144, but none were ever labeled as "1/32". Testors was also produced a fictitious "MiG-37B Ferret E" Soviet stealth in 1/48.

 

Testors/Italeri did produce the first 1/32 F-117 kit, though.

I'll try and dig up that specific Revell catalogue page, i kept it because i was ofcourse interested in such a "mistic" aircraft.
