mathy Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Hi all, fresh from my desk is the new Kinetic F-18A Hornet (in fact a F-18A+). Built a Spanish Air Force one with a mix of box decals and by Series Espanolas. Further I used LGB`s and Sidewinder by Brassin and some Eduard PEs. 72 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinBK Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Very very nice...but wrong seat for a Spanish Hornet.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Very nice midel and realistically dirgy for a Spanish C.15 Hornet from Ala 15 based at Zaragoza airbase! For whatever reason it seem that you painted up Aim-9Ps as L/Ms.... looks a bit strange, sorry Cheers,Werner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathy Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 I followed the Brassin instruction for that, have to check ist again and change it, should be no problem. Nevertheless thanks for the information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcdonnell Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Hello,Mathy - My subject knowledge does not qualify me to pass comment on types of ejector seat or missile colours. I certainly do know when I see a superbly built and finished model though.This 'Hornet',in the pleasingly different Spanish colours,is simply exquisite. 😉👍 All the best,Paul. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevertheless thanks for the information For an Ala 15 hornet L/M Sidewinders would be more appropriate for many years now! No idea if they used the older version before. Only the Canarias based un-modified hornets use the older Aim-9 model. Usually painted white with very caracteristic canards as on your model! But all in all only a very minor observation!! Congrats again!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildeSau75 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 This is a top notch build - easily one of the best Hornets I have seen. Congrats to a real winner. Cheers, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
