Four weapons pylons is clear?! Where is bombs & missile? Air intake jet engine channel where? Just because KP very-very need yours money - modeller!? So maybe for such a "gorgeous" model, they also want with money - "clothes,boots and motorcycle"? B.R. Serge P.S. My BAe Hawk Mk.200, thought that in his company of modern ersatz fighters L-159 ALCA from KP would be added, but it looks like he will languish alone.

Modelraynz Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Im wondering if for their previous releases, like the s-199, if they were tooled by another company for kp? was really excitrd about this release, but guess i was hoping for 4 something like the south front l-39!

As for grafting it to an Albatros, it's probably more work than its worth as the two aircraft don't share a single part in common in real life . The ALCA is also a bit bigger in every direction than the Albatros. Not by much, but enough to make a difference in scale if AZ/KP got the ALCA kit right dimensionally.
