The Hasegawa Draken is one of those kits that is just a joy to build: accurate form, good fit, great surface detailing. This one is augmented with Eduard J-35 Draken details (mainly cockpit and wheel wells) and masks. The downside with Hasegawa kits of this era are the decals: thick, with the white rendered in ivory and the Draken is no exception. I had been planning to build this as an Austrian J-35O (with an IPMS Austria decal sheet) until I picked up the Flying Colors Aerodecals J-35F/J decals. This sheet is a big improvement on the kit decals and enabled me to build this as a J-35F2 in the original Swedish camouflage colours, which look good to me. The Rb28 (Hughes AIM-4D) missiles are from a Hasegawa weapons set. I know the trailing edge control surfaces should be angled slightly down but I can live with it and I’m happy with the overall result. Chris PS The khaki green looks a lot browner in these photos than it does in real life, even though they were taken in natural light!

Saab Draken Upgrades (for Eduard/Hasegawa) 1:48 Eduard Following their limited edition reboxing of the excellent Hasegawa kit, which is still available here, which included some resin and Photo-Etch (PE) parts to improve on the original, here they are again with yet MORE improvements! Danish Pylons (648262) The set arrives in the familiar Brassin clamshell box, with the resin parts safely cocooned on dark grey foam inserts, and the instructions sandwiched between the two halves, doubling as the header card. These resin pylons replace the Swedish designed pylons for the Danish specific items, as would be needed for one of the markings options in the aforementioned boxing. Six resin pylons are included in the box, plus 12 sway-braces; a sheet of PE attachment lugs and mating surface detail skins; and a sheet of stencil decals. The decals on our sample were incorrect for the boxing, so please check yours on receipt, just in case and Eduard have been made aware. A scrap diagram shows where the new mounting holes need to be, with sufficient measurements to allow you to position them accurately from the inside of the wing. A little filling and shaving of the moulded-in pylon details will be needed on the exterior too, but nothing too taxing. Upgrade Set (48892) As usual with Eduard's Photo-Etch (PE) and Mask sets, they arrive in a flat resealable package, with a white backing card protecting the contents and the instructions that are sandwiched between. The set is substantial and the parts are spread over two frets of bare brass, with a full set of skins for the gear bays and their doors, as well as for the trailing edge of the wing root if you are dropping the flaps and even the tail bumper bay. The windscreen, canopy and cockpit sills are all detailed with a large quantity of small parts to improve their accuracy; air-brakes are cut into the fuselage, their floor and brake parts added from PE; fine details added to the three gear legs, and attachment rail fittings are supplied for the Swedish pylons and adapter rails if you are using them. A very busy set! Review sample courtesy of
