@exdraken. now that @Homebee updated the post with pictures of the extra 3D printed parts, is definitely a Shafrir-2, which makes sense for a Sa'ar.

Hi,

Has this kit been released yet? I missed the chance to get the previous one.

Uh-huh... That's right, Werner. The Fukuryu fella is right. I wonder whether or not the one person designing that resin Shafrir missile thing is the same who used to cast resin bits for the Wingman Models Super Kit series of the Kfir offerings.

I'm going to enquire Mr Andreas Klein regarding that.

Cheers,

Hi Bozo, my mate!

How's everything going up there in the Netherlands like?

Are you getting this kit?

Cheers,

 

Igna

definitely!

I have the 'French' one, and always had a soft spot for Israeli aircraft.

Oh? If you haven't built it by April the 1st, then you've got to sell it to me. :pray:

At least my kit is safe now :D

Was a very enjoyable build!

I am sure the French  🇫🇷 "Early" kit will get a re-release of some sorts!

Don't panic Igna!

Hi Werner,

Yes, indeed. I followed your build thread all along. Quite a superb job you did on your SMB2 kit!

I don't mind having to buy the Sa'ar version, it's only that I didn't ever like the extended "a.r.s.e" on the Israeli jets, like it was the case with the A-4N Ayit.

But I can easily build the French version out of it (sans the decals, of course).

Cheers,

 

Igna

Are SH/A going to re-release this kit anytime soon? I missed it on the initial release.

 

The upcoming SH48238 SMB-2 Super Mystère 'Sa'ar - Israeli Storm in the Sky' in 1/48 will contain a large number of 3D printed parts. It will be a Hi-tech kit. We worked with MCC company, who prepared the 3D prints for us. The prints are protected by a 'cage', you can see the test parts sprayed with Surfacer in the photos of the presentation pad we had in Nuremberg.

I know Bozothenutter but this is on the Hannants (UK) eStore ''future release'' listings, under the Special Hobby label.

interesting....

Going from the work SH did with/for Tarangus, they seem  to split versions between them, Tarangus does the fighters, SH the fighter/bombers.

Tarangus gets no pylons or stores, just as with Azur/Fromm

Black-bordered yellow panels  and prefix "0" on Israeli Sa'ar were added post-Yom Kippur war; they weren't used during the conflict. Nevertheless, is good to see DP Casper alive and well.
