  1. Having in mind the upcoming Bobcat Il-28 Beagle in 1/48th scale, we will upscale our popular Beagle sheets, as HD48035 and HD48036. (Model & photo B.Pethe)
  2. Well, I guess it will be slowly time to upscale our Beagle sheet(s) to 1/48th scale... Greetings Diego www.hi-decal.eu (Model & photo: B.Pethe)
  3. It will be a real pleasure! I'am just working on it... Re Peruvian air force, of course, the "14° escuadrón de caza" gamefowl badge will be included too. The only thing I am still not sure is if the badge has been applied on both fuselage sides...but I think it was, as I have seen a "ground training" device with the badge applied symmetrically on both sides of the cockpit... Greetings Diego
  4. Already available in 1/72 ( HD72035) and 1/48 (HD48005) scales:
  5. Many thanks! Indeed, J-702 has small insignia, J-703 even smaller ones and J-718 does not have any wing markings. And, your're right, (J-)734 in her last scheme should have pale grey wing insignia and codes. Cordiales saludos Diego
  6. Well, now it's a bit too early to say how Airfix MiG-17F will look exactly, but if the form is correct, then our MiG-17F decals (Poland, Egypt, Angola, Israel) should work without problems on this Fresco too... and also our MiG-17 Fresco A sheet (USSR, Mongolia, Afghanistan, Iraq, GDR) can be used without trouble - here you can simply adapt the exhaust without afterburner from the Dragon/Zvezda offering.
  7. Ethiopian, Angolan and Eritrean birds have been fully updated, based on the latest available information and pics. Correct current Ethiopian markings, based on close-up shots, are available for the very first time on this sheet and two are included as bonus ( in fact, you only need 2 for the tail, as wing markings are now not used by the EtAF).
  8. Some colorful alternatives (Eritrea (UB) , Angola (UB), Ethiopia, Indonesia) from Hi-Decal ( HD72050 & HD48022) :
  9. Good day! I am currently working on a decal sheet dedicated to T-6G Texans used in the post war period. Many of them were armed with two "M2" .30 cal (single) gun pods, that were also used on the T-28 Troyans. It seems that this weapons were highly popular among the crews of these aircraft and were widely used, but, unfortunately, I was not able to find any plans or drawings showing these pods. I would be a big help, if you could provide some drawings or scale plans, or a good profile picture, so I could make a scale drawing. Many thanks in advance Diego Hi-Decal
  10. Well, the Mirage project has been put on ice, as Berna released a sheet covering several IRIAF options, but an F-1EQ (Iran & Iraq) sheet will be surely released in the future.
  11. Hi-Decal will soon release two decal sheets (1/72 and 1/48) for the legendary T-Bird: HD72062 & HD48032 - T-33A Shooting Star with markings for five colorful aircraft: - T-33A "2-161", Imperial Iranian Air Force (IIAF), Training Detachment at TFB.1 Mehrabad, 1963 - target tug scheme wth orange uppersurfaces and NMF underside; - T-33A "2-8002", Islamic Republic of Iran AF (IRIAF),85th AWTS, TFB.8 Baba'ie, 1987 - pale grey uppersurfaces and light grey underside; - T-33A "2-8005", Islamic Republic of Iran AF (IRIAF),85th AWTS, TFB.8 Baba'ie, 1995 - light blue and dark blue uppersurfaces and light grey underside; - T-33A "UB-531", Union of Burma Air Force (UBAF), N°502 Air Base HQ, Mingaladon AB/Yangon Int'l, 1971 - NMF with nose and entire rear fuselage in day-glo orange; - T-33A "703", Cuban Fuerza Aérea Revolucionaria (FAR), BA San Antonio de los Baños, 1961 - camouflaged in dark green and grass green after the FAL bombing raids of April 15th., 703 was one of only tree operational Cuban T-33s during the Bay of Pigs invasion and was credited with the downing of two FAL B-26 Invaders on April 17th and the damaging /sinking of the transport ships Houston and Rio Escondido. The decals are scheduled to be available during March. greetings Diego
  12. For details please visit this post in the Manufacturers Area section Greetings Diego
  13. Well, Revell followed exactly the same approach in 1/72nd scale, offering a F.6 and then, later, a FGA.9 boxing with the respective "new" parabrake equipped exhaust pipe. - I am therefore fairly sure that Airfix will offer a separate FGA.9 boxing during 2019 - the FGA.9 being considered as the "main" Hunter version - with all needed items. - I also hope very much that they will also add a transparent nose for the FR.10 recce version ( the same recce nose was used on both F.6 and FGA.9 airframes) - remember that Airfix has just done a new recce Meteor !!! - Finally, with a bit of luck, many modellers' dream in form of mainstream kit of the T.7 two seater, could also become true thanks to Airfix...hopefully. Greetings Diego Hi-Decal
  14. Hello Pervis, Would it be possible to reload the photos, as the links don't work... Many thanks in advance! Diego
