Dave Roof Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 It was literally just that statement with no other text or information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger2614 Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) Per their Facebook page, they are closing up shop. Can anyone confirm or deny? I know I gave KittyHawk a bad wrap because their kits are. . .well. . .challenging. That's the word I'll use, challenging. Anyone have a better scoop?

Dave Roof Posted June 3, 2021 Author Share Posted June 3, 2021 5 minutes ago, Jennings Heilig said: Not sure that was an "announcement". Looks more like a hack to me. Thought the same thing, but figured to post it just in case. They just released the HH-60H, MH-60S and Mirage 2000D/N, but haven't posted anything on FB in months.

Avenger2614 Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Jennings, I wondered if that was the case, as they had just released two new variants of their UH-60 series as well as a new boxing of their 1/48 FJ Fury. Usually you don't see a shut-down announcement a mere week after new kits are released, but stranger things have happened. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seiran01 Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I hope it's not the case that they're shutting down. I'm thoroughly enjoying my F-5 build and am looking forward to the two Mirages I have sitting in the stash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I guess the eBay prices for the Panda Models 1/16 Panzer 38(t) will now go into orbit with the WNW kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thierry laurent Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I just ordered the MH-60R as I'm afraid some kits will soon become very difficult to get and this was the last kit I still did not have in the large scale helos I was interested in. Too bad. This kills the Jaguar and F-84 projects as well. A pity... zerosystem, kkarlsen and Jack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.B. Andrus Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Well, this got me to buy the OS2U Kingfisher that had been put off for way too long. Still at a good price. As Scotsman said, the prices will be going up while availability goes down. Sorry to lose Kittyhawk - always a sad day to lose a manufacturer.
