Shaun Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) Got the Harrier GR7 release last week and have been looking at what is out there for after market updates. What sets/items do you think are worth adding to spruce the kit up? The Aires Wheel bay and Cockpit sets look good, but the Harrier GR7 Cockpit has yet to be released. Does anyone produce a set of 1/32nd BOL rails? Shaun. Edited June 13, 2011 by Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin ritchie Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 (edited) Don't think so , yet , bet bet might to be nice to someome with the black Knights boxing of the Tamiya F-14, that had BOL rails in it , and I Think , stress think, that there were 4 in a box , when you only needed two ... As for the rest of the resin tweakes, I'm patiently waiting for Aires to get started ! Edited June 14, 2011 by colin ritchie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrierpilot Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Cutting Edge released a pair of resin LAU-138 BOL/Chaff launcher rails in 1/32nd scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piero Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Hi Shaun, all, a couple of BOL launchers in 1/32nd for the GR.7/9's kit will be cast soon from this: These pieces are part of a detail set that will includes the followings: New ventral strakes New ventral pylon for targeting pod New centerline pylon New wing pylons for Air-to-Air missile New "frog-eye" airscoops New ventral chaff launcher box New LAU launchers for AIM-9L/M New BOL launchers for AIM-9L/M This set will be cast this week, the mould is already done. I don't know how many resin copies will be available. We are considering also if a 100% LERX set could be useful as for a new GR.5's nose, depends on what decal sheets will be available on the market. I'll keep you update as soon as the resin parts will be ready. CIAO! Piero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 (edited) Great news Piero, I'd be intrested in a set if you produce a few. You may want to add a GPS dome to update the GR7 kit? Do you think someone will bring out a set of resin wheels for the kit? Shaun. Edited June 15, 2011 by Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike W Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 You pay £80 on a 1/32 Harrier, and then need or want to pay for after market accessories on top? I can understand paying £20 for a 1/32 Hawk, and then paying for a few extra goodies, but surely any 1/32 kit costing £80 should have all you need for an exemplary OOB build?

What he said, if someone wants to pay £80, then more ontop to suit their needs then so be it lol It's like buying a car for 5k and spending 10k on it, Loads do it! The parts look good to, Put me down as a maybe, as I don't have the kit yet.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonflyhkg Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Gents, Count me in for the 1:32 Harrier parts; I'll need all of them. Just a point of clarification; Here a link to a Public Domain photograph of JFH aircraft over Afghanistan in Decmber 2008. The photo is High-Resolution, so you may zoom as necessary. http://dams.defenseimagery.mil/defenselink...ink_preview.jsp Have alook at the 100% LERX. It gives the distinct impression of the additional panel not being parrallel to the airflow on the inboard edge. It also indicates the extent of the panel around the the exhaust port (APU) Does anyone have information or other photos to confirm this??

Piero Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Hello, thank you for the interest on the parts I made. Here some pictures of the resin parts just copied. Actually they are prototype of the parts, soon they will be adjusted. Maybe there will be two separate sets, one generic for Trumpeter's Harriers with ventral strakes, centreline pylon, launch rails and airscoop. The other one its specific for GR.7/9, same as above plus all the other parts only for RAF versions. I'll let you know when they will be available. CIAO!
