Stephen Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I'm looking forward to the kit but that markings option is not on the cards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAT69 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 The markings are absolutely fictional but I have to wonder if they were chosen in order to perhaps add to the model's appeal to other than dedicated model builders. Pure speculation on my part but it's the only way I can see to justify their choice. I have to wonder if this is the "only" set of markings the kit comes with.

Air one Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 (edited) Hi! Straight from the manufacturer, below is the sprues layout. It is supposed to be released mid-2023, Can’t wait !!!

Tokyo Raider Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 This is fantastic news! Mid 2023! I want this kit more than anything else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dudikoff Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 The sprue diagrams makes it seem like a relatively low part number kit, kind of toy-ish like. I know it's a relatively simple airframe design, but still.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAT69 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Given that what is known about the airplane remains speculative for the most part, a low parts count shouldn't be a surprise. That the model would be representative of what the real airplane might have been like will satisfy many modelers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullofit Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I have a feeling these aren’t all the sprues. No clear parts, weapons. I’m not sure I can see the cockpit tub anywhere. There may be another sprue with the fiddly bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRK4m Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 What a stupid waste of time and pointless waste of resources. And the T-62, (produced in tens of thousands of pieces, the main Soviet MBT of the 1965-85 period, "merited" in the invasion of Czechoslovakia and Afghanistan), has been announced by the same Modelcollect as "future release UA72021" for NINE years. What's more - both Esci/Italeri and Trumpeter sets in 1:72 can be considered T-62 caricatures at best. Cheers Michael 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullofit Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Interesting, for some reason I am now more interested in the A-12 than the stupid waste of time and the pointless waste of resources T-62. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravo52 Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 (edited) Has anyone heard the status on this model. I want this model more than just about any other out there now that AF is releasing a Gannet. Was it "Vapor-ware" all along?

Tokyo Raider Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Any more news on the A-12 kit? I will take a few of them. One for my model case, and want to build one on a stand for my desk at work! I got hired out of college to work on the A-12. I owe my career to that beast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
