sinistervampire319 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Just got mine from Lucky Model. In box it looks really nice! So the only bummer is lack of weapons. That said what are the rocket pods used on the Pucara in the Falklands and where can they be sourced? Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The market appears to have a gap currently! Would it be correct to say the standard fit was 2 per pylon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
