  1. im really surprised in this move by airfix, the last tool was far ahead of any other hawks on the market, but im slightly worried about a couple of things

    pros - pannel lines and wing fences (although they dont look in the right place on quick inspection)

    cons - now you cant open the cockpit unless you cut the clear part, and 1 pilot? what does this mean for the other boxing of the hawk kit (the black hawk)

    now with over 50 of the old ones in my stash, i may get one to see what the comparison is, cos if its not broke.......

  2. i think jennings gets what i mean

    there is very little relation between the t1 / t2 and a t-45

    the airfix and italeri kits are very good for there price, as for detail there aint much on a hawk anyway - poor fit? i have built 20 of the 1/48 ones (both airfix and italeri) and well the fitt is pretty good, slightly better on the italeri as is the detail but the price is more expensive

    going back to the t-45, Gabe Pincelli (recently retired t-45 instructor pilot) has had a hand in this kit being designed, so im ecpecting great things

    the t-45 is the one missing form my collection

    i have all but them in 1/48

    t1, t2, 200, korean nose job, then lot

  3. anyone sees this on ANY site for sale please please PM me!

    I have just operned my copy of Scale Aircraft Modelling to find a advert from KINETIC for their new 1/48th scale T-45A/C Goshawk aviable from Lucky Models.com :analintruder:

    Wing Span 196mm, Lenght 249 150+parts. Units on the decal sheet could be the TW-1

    Now I'm hoping that there's Hawk T1 or T2 on it's way.

    im after a few goshawks

    but whats wrong with the italeri and airfix hawks?

  4. guys i have just spoken to a very good source (part of the bb1 crew)

    they photo acording to the crew member was not mission 1, as they was a photos / press blackout and well
