Once again, I hope we get to see that livery for a USAF scheme if Admiral does one...

I came to the conclusion tonight that we need to have a full compliment of ordnance to be made available.

yes that red line indecates the ecternal difference and there are A LOT of internal differences I would love to see it in 1/18 because it is my favorit plane.

oh and the skyraider looks great

IMHO
The F-2 does look nice but I would rather see other aircraft made like the F-4, F-15 or the F111. Beside it looks very much like an F-16.

What is this shroud?
Will it be removable?
Will see the radial engine detail?

Those were generally for cold weather engine start and warm up. Similar to a cold front for cars. Very common with Soviet piston a/c. After warm up they would slide/fold for normal engine ops.

I didn't notice that, good eye. Good guestion also, if it's molded closed, then the only real display option on on the ground.

Thanks.

Well I hope not I want to hang one. I sure hope that Jason can explain it?

Likely just done for the simplified master, at least I hope so.

FieroDude · Post by **FieroDude** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 10:13 pm

could be that they haven't finalized all the engine detail yet. It's still a while out, he said. Just like the open pylons--there are still a few details to hammer out besides paint, I am sure.

May be there will be an changeable section where you can switch them out.

I was thinking that too.

If it is armor plating, I hope its adjustable, because I would like to see the detail of the radial engine.

to me it looks like they fold inward.

Is there any hint on that new release--or can we just assume it is an F-5

JimBob55 · Post by **JimBob55** » Mon Feb 05, 2007 9:27 pm

The Skyraider will have many great paint options. My favorite would be the Intrepid version that VMF115 posted.

You do know what assume means?

Assume = to accept something to be true without question or proof:

Well if not an F-5 its an A-10 that would be the trifecta of all releases, Dauntless, Skyraider and the A-10. Its like the evolution of Attack/Bomber aircraft.

DocTodd · Post by **DocTodd** » Tue Feb 06, 2007 7:47 pm

An A-10 would eb very appropriate. I'm all for it!!!!

VMF115 · Post by **VMF115** » Tue Feb 06, 2007 8:42 pm

I am guessing an A-7 or an A-6.

And yes I am assuming

digger · Post by **digger** » Tue Feb 06, 2007 10:09 pm

I think F-5 is a good guess due to the rumors but what about the Kate? Is that still not a possibility considering the 1/32 version shown and the Dauntless incoming?
