December 9th for US release. Sorry haven't heard anything for the UK. -
Where are the magnets for the weapons?? It was previewed with the "MAGFIRE" attachment feature? Also I thought there would be P/E strengthening plates? Just curious.

All you would need is a new "old" instrument panel. A pave penny pylon and your good. all the rest of the antennas were either carried by later "A's" or they can be removed (ALE-47 sensors)

Well I am not a big fan of the open engine panels. But I will give them kudos for including the parts to do both the older Su-27P and the newer Su-27SM. I Hope GWH does the same thing. And the MLG wheel wells are molded at the right angle!

I was there in '91! Matter of fact my outfit won the competition! 175th FG MD ANG. From what I was told the F-15E's didn't have a strafing gunsight it was strictly A/A but they tried!

So I take it the kit comes with both the Lockheed C-2 seat and the Martin Baker GQ-7 seats? So can we do about any version of the 104G from this kit? I know there will be slight detail changes but we can do most 104g"s?

OK I see what you are saying, I think they will tighten that up. If not a simple fix , but one that should be caught now and refined in the test shot stage. Good catch.

What gap are you referring to sir? The one directly behind the canopy? that's for the center canopy roller. I'm sure they will tighten up anything small.
