How are the Modelsvit kit?
I see they have nice details, but
how is the fit? Are they still considered short run kit's?

Oh, that's pretty cool. Was hoping for a new tool Mirage IV in 1/48.
Is this Modelsvit's first model kit of a jet in 1/48? Hopefully they could do some of the Soviet/Russian stuff in 1/48 that is still not tackled (Kitty Hawk promised quite a few but burned out before they've gotten to it).
Sorry, have to mention that a kit of a Yak-41 in 1/48 would be great
I'll go for a Yak-41 Freestyle 1/48th scale! Short run would be better than nothing.

Would that be Phil Flory’s American cousin?
Oh dear, my bad!

As anyone seen a review that covers accuracy of the HB superhornet?
Their are some reviews on YouTube. One is by Phil Flory,
he likes the kit, more then the Meng. There's another quick build video that shows the model finished at the end. Looks good, so far. Fit of the part seemed to be very good also, maybe not Tamiya fit, but very good.

Then again, nobody will ever make what I want! 🥺

Until you mentioned it, I didn't even know what Zap-a-Gap was, but I surely do now (looked it up on the 'net) and it's on my hobby shopping list!
WOW!!!

I hope Revell uses a harder plastic then they did in their 1/32nd scale F-18E kit!

This is to give the interesting news that Trumpeter has commissioned a Box Art for a 1/350 Model Kit of the Planned Conversion of the Launched and almost completed ( Admiral Hipper Class Heavy Cruiser ) for the Seydlitz WW2 Warship Hull to be a German Navy Carrier .
Tonight Randall confirmed to me it will be Trumpeter of China who will produce it as a kit using the Hull of their Hipper Class and other parts of the Graf Zeppelin ( planes etc ) .
Beautiful artwork!

it is auxiliary intakes for the main engine that has its compressor stages aft of the lift fan

On the F-35B, behind the lift fan door, there's a second split door
that opens when the plane is taking off and landing. When open, it exposed the drive shaft that runs from the engine to the lift fan. Can anyone tell me why it is there, why is it necessary to expose the lift fan shaft? Is it an auxiliary intake, necessary for more air to be sucked into the engine for it to function properly?

Italeri is making the F-35B in 1/48th scale. Let's see how they approached the RAM panels. I'm not going to hold my breath that they don't come out looking like armored plating, but you never know!

I hope landing gear is included!

Now, it will be another month, before we see the actual plastic. Just saying. 😎

I certainly hope Sukhoi redoes the nose on this aircraft!

Who will be the first, to give us an
injection molded kit of this jet?

Wow! what a first post Luca. One of the best Hunter models i think I've seen. The paintwork and finishing makes it look like the real thing! Absolutely stunning. Looking forward to your future builds 👍👍
Yes, fantastic work!

I suspect they won't release the F-35B in 1/48th scale until the end of the year.

Drawings can be ancient and accurate. What drawings are supposed to be better.
AFAIK TrumpyBoss take scale drawings and walkarounds lying around and hand them out to a CAD designer. The problem is that the designer doesn't know anything about the subject (which is pretty normal to me: he's a CAD designer, not an aviation enthusiast). What's really missing is someone reviewing his work to debug the CAD model before tooling. Some producers do that (at least Great Wall Hobby and Kinetic) but TrumpyBoss isn't one of them.
I hope they didn't mess up their new F-18E!

Well, as a boy, I would have loved kits like this! Was really into zeppelin's and things of that nature back then, but their wasn't much available! Definitely something different!

course.
