SleeperService Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Including several never-weres! I particularly remember the ZSU-23-6 gatling gun mentioned. The Frisbees stick in my mind although maybe???? Cracking book though and with recent events in the news getting a bit too relevant! Anyhoo I shall be building a Tank Mania SA-4 Ganef 1/48 resin kit (and very lovely it looks too!) likely in Polish markings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulR Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 Well, I'll have to a proper count, but I make that 19 or so. Was just thinking about the tank side of things; chieftains, leopards, late M60s, early Abrams, T72s- Tamiya to the rescue here, at least in 1/35!

PaulR Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 Evening all, Have rather neglected this thread due to work, that necessary unpleasantness for the purchase of more kits . . anyway, thought it time for a headcount to see where we are with this... and it's 27! Just three more to qualify for the vote. . . must be able to do this. Was trying to think of more interesting subjects to whet modelling appetites. Let's see; WR coded aggressor F-16s, Wildenrath Phantoms. RAFG Buccaneers, Chieftain tanks, Norwegian/Dutch F-5s. Anyone got any other ideas?

PaulR Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 Afternoon chaps, Well, we're there with numbers! Mish, would you be able to add this to the vote? I have a mind to give the GB a more dramatic name - how about the 'Red Storm Rising' GB? Particulrly appropriate since the same scenario seems to be working up again 25 years later! Cheers for all the support. Paul 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousDFB1 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 It will be included in the vote in November and I like the title, funny I'm rereading the book in my rare spare time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Hallo Rich, it would be great to have you on board! However, am not sure there were any F-4Ds left in Europe by the 80s, which would be the scope of the build. There were ANG F-4Ds (I'll check which squadron) which were temporarily deployed to Ramstein for QRA when the wing there converted to the F-16C in '86 or '87, so that could be an option!

Ghostbase Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Wondering whether a Russian Udaloy I ASW destroyer would be eligible here? The lead ship Udaloy was laid down July 1977 and entered service December 1980. Had the Cold War gone hot in the 80's I think they would have been active adversaries in the seas around the European continent. I do have the Trumpeter 1/350th 'Russian Navy Udaloy' kit in the stash, purchased it after visiting the RFS Vice Admiral Kulakov in Portsmouth on 26th August 2012. I never ever thought I would get to walk round a Russian ASW destroyer in my lifetime. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
