Dave Williams Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 From what I’ve read, the JP233s weren’t well liked during Desert Storm. Although the weapon itself was effective, it required the attacking aircraft to fly a straight and predictable path down the length of the runway, which made them vulnerable.

Anthony in NZ Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) Does anyone do a Skyflash in 1/32? Not sure if the Tornado carried them very often, but thinking of my FG.1 Phantom conversion Edited January 25, 2021 by Anthony in NZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phartycr0c Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Anthony, the Skyflash is so close to the Aim 120 Sparrow in every way but name. Stick some of them on the Phantom no one will ever know. some more stuff for Tornados from flightpath https://www.djparkins.com/home.php?cat=253 Mark M and Anthony in NZ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott_t Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Hopefully Eduard will up-scale their 1/48 accessories for the Tornado to 1/32.

RichG Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) Just taken delivery of 2 sets of British 1,000lb GP bombs from Videoaviation today (6 retard, 6 freefall) from Italy. I have 3 words to describe them: out... stand... ing! They are cast in resin (for some reason I was expecting 3D printing) beautifully moulded in two main halves: bomb and appropriate tail with scale fins; the pouring stubs convieiently in the centre of the join area making removal / clean-up straightforward. They come with separate lugs to facilitate different bomb crutches, arming vanes and stencil marking decals. The profile of bomb and tails look spot-on If you are planning going conventional then this is the way to go! And at a reasonable price (compared with some resin i have recently purchased). Well pleased Many thanks Maurizio Rich Edited January 28, 2021 by RichG Stevepd, thierry laurent, onosendai and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onosendai Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Thanks for everything, these products cannot be 3D printed directly, for the volume of the object it would be too expensive, casting resin is reasonably cheap. I must have messed with the decals, there are also white stencils that you don't need, you won't believe it but I don't remember why I added those.......

Dave Williams Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 People looking for Storm Shadows can probably just ask for leftovers from anyone who has the KH Mirage 2000 kits as they are the same as the SCALP EG included in those kits. They are even included in the 2000C kit, and I don’t think they were ever carried on the single seater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotsman Posted February 2, 2021 Author Share Posted February 2, 2021 Remember you do get 2 StormShadows in the Revell 2 Seater Typhoon - ok they're like Hens Teeth these days , but if you want an excuse to spend time on Ebay - there you go! wunwinglow and Mark M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
