I had some fun last week building Airfix 1/48 Hawker Hunter F.4. I finished this somewhat demanding kit as a machine from 14 Escuadrón Caza Interceptor of the Peruvian Air Force stationed in Chiclayo during 1958, built using CMK Hawker Hunter interior and landing gear set, decorated with Vespa Models VMKD 48002 South American Hunters and armed with VMKP 48004 Oerlikon SURA rockets. I hope you all like it. BR from Lima Amaru

Hello Martin According to my refs apart from the Soviet IFF there should be nothing but panels there. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bYcMvO57zYXdJffyeOh9jNq4mnHzVTL3/view?usp=share_link Amaru -

I agree with you. They have some *acceptable* kits. End product depends if the subject is developed by A or B team, as far as I have noted... -

Hmmm this might be an unpopular opinion to some but I would strongly advise to those willing to build a Battle to wait for the FROMM one. After their Whirlwind fiasco I know I will. -
Decals are just available on my website, pre-orders are being shipped now !! The slots were inherited from the 1/48 version, as the Kittyhawk required additional clearing in that area.just fill them up Best wishes from Lima Amaru

I noticed a bit of a shrinkage issues with some batches. I will discuss this with my caster as the original master is a perfect match with Modelsvit part. Also I could suggest warm water to the area in order to expand the area just enough. Great update! I am getting close on the 1/48 nose for the Fitter F... Regards from Lima and Merry Christmas

Hello any of these offerings from ModelsVit can be used, since Vespa conversion had the full tail with both types of tail fins (for use with twin seaters U and UM) Best regards from Lima Amaru

I might be able to find a few copies from Jorge Nuñez Padín, but is kinda long shot. Have you tried Ebay? Regards Amaru

Hello A couple of good references for Peruvian Fitters: Latin Wings 4, from Jorge Nuñez Padin and yours truly. Also Air Wars between Ecuador and Perú 2 & 3 have nice pictures and colour profiles of operational FAP Fitters. Amaru

Hi It will depend of "which Iraqi Fitter" you want to build. If is a Fitter C, of course, there is the excellent ModelsVit. However, Iraq, being one -if not the largest- Fitter user of them all, also operated the Tumansky engined-long nosed "Fitter F", featured in our upcoming 1/72 and 1/48 decal sheets. That particular version requires a whole new nose section (as per the case of the 1/48 model) but, since the Modelsvit kit is a single piece fuselage it will present additional surgical requirements to the modeller. At this time I am still studying the way to simplify the conversion process. Best wishes from Lima Amaru
