SoftScience Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Would a South African rooikat be allowed? These vehicles were specifically designed to fullfil the reconnaissance AND tank killer roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rich, I will start a thread later on as we are working on a maths test today, so to incentivise the learning, each correctly completed section will be rewarded with doing a section on the Arado ! As for me I have a FW200 Condor to finish in the Maritime GB, and 3 unstarted trainers in the Trainers GB that I am co-hosting ! However I promise to find something today, and obviously will seek permission to join first ! cheers Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

825 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 (edited) Does this count as a ship killer? More of a sub hunter but subs are ships, aren't they? Also it could be torpedo, bomb and rocket attack aircraft. Edited March 16, 2019 by 825 Better picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any pitfalls I should know about? It's actually not a bad model, free from the common Trumpeter issues! 6 hours ago, andyf117 said: Hopefully, this GB will provide the incentive to finally complete another of the long-neglected builds that I started for the Sea King STGB many moons ago! It worked last year with the HAR.3 Grey Whale for the RAF 100 GB - so this time around, it would be the ASaC.7, as originally seen here: With virtually nothing having been done to it since, the current state of play is: So if I can get confirmation that it's classed as being within the 25% rule, I'll pick up where I left off! gee I'd almost say you'd make the 5% rule! She's fine, off you go as well and start a build thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddyf Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) I know it’s the 13th hour, and I’m a little late to the party, but would a late entry be acceptable? I have three kits (well that’s obviously an enormous understatement!) that fit this builds requirements and I’ve needed a poke to start. I have the new Airfix 1/48 Blenheim waving at me, a Trumpeter Gannet and the venerable Airfix 1/72 BV141 pleading to be started. so a nightfighter and two recce! Question is, which one?
