Finn Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I know what the things under the wings are but what are the items under the fuselage: looks like a targeting pod on the far side. Jari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzz Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 The pod nearest the camera is on the starboard shoulder station, it's a TERMA countermeasures pod, the largest and most prominent pod is on the centre pylon and is a Vinten recce pod. Out of shot (you can just see its airintake) on the port shoulder station will be a Sniper targeting pod. Here's the Sniper pod on the port station and Vinten pod in the centre pylon. http://s52.photobucket.com/user/spike7451/media/20581775.jpg.html And here's the TERMA pod, nothing on the centre station, Sniper pod in the background. http://s52.photobucket.com/user/spike7451/media/2058177544.jpg.html Both photos appear to be courtesy of Merv, RIP, by pure coincidence.

tempestfan Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 The old Airfix 1/3 kit (1/72) included "a" Recon pod, but without any detail, and of course as that kit was released in 1969, the pod may totally differ externally from the recent version. Which is my way of saying I have no idea if they are comparable but the older version may have potential to serve as a basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GR3 Vinten recce pod was completly different to that used on the second generation Harrier. Selwyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrierpilot Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Hello Harrier experts, can anyone please tell me the actual dimensions of the DJRP and CRV-7 pods please, planning ahead for a ' Herrick ' GR 9. TIA John EDIT. Finally got the Thales site to load so I have the DJRP dimensions. What scale please.?? The CRV- and the DJRP are both in the Airfix in 1/72nd scale and I modified the pods off a Apache AH1 in 1/48th scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles87 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Sorry 1/48, but the actual dimensions of the CRV-7 would be OK, and Shaun has kindly offered to cast me a DJRP. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
