F4u Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Italeri have released a new Chinook in 1/48 scale , but I can't seem to find any details of the new parts it has to make the HC.2 . Does it have the filters for the engines which going by the box art I would think not. If anybody has any information that would be a help. Many Thanks Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many Thanks Guy They look like the standard HC.2 style intake filters to me. I don't have the kit but sprue shots here, https://www.emodels.co.uk/italeri-1-48-boeing-chinook-hc-2-ch-47f-2779.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Fleming Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 (edited) Interesting, it does looks like the fuselage is a proper new F/HC2 and not just a rebadge or their old HC1 kit (Sponson side attachments for example) Edited February 19, 2018 by Dave Fleming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabba Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I think if I am looking at the correct picture, those are the engine exhausts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Having got my hands on one of these, I compared the sprue map to the instruction sheet for the earlier issue of the CH-47 . The differences are on the latest issue that there is no clear sprue with the radar nose (eg :used on RNLAF Chinooks) and there are two new identical sprues with various antennae/ ECM/dispensers/RWR etc. The blades appear unchanged and there are no weapons included. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F4u Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 Thanks Stephen, so it's got all the antenna and ECM etc. Dose it have the nose ariel? Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
