MigModeller Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Hi all Has the centre-line recce pod for Jaguar been produced in 172 scale? Are their any plans so an accurate one can be made from the numerous fuel tanks in my spares box http://www.spyflight.co.uk/jag%20pod.htm Thanks in anticipation M.M.

Terry1954 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 If you mean the EMI pod Air Graphics produced one. Seems like you can get one on ebay: https://www.ebay.ie/itm/Air-Graphics-AIR-AC-069-1-72-Scale-EMI-Linescan-Recce-pod-for-RAF-Jaguars-/173005917810 Also, I have a white metal pod that I acquired many years ago but I can't recall who made it!

Antti_K Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Hello M.M. I have measurements and some photos of Vinten 302 (BAe Hawk) but is this the one you are looking information of? Cheers, Antti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the white metal pod was made by C Scale. It was jolly heavy when I fitted one to an Airfix Jaguar in the 80s and over the years the weight of the pod caused the undercarriage to splay apart until the pod was resting on the shelf. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicarage Vee Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Many years ago there was a Kit Bits resin one too, but the Air Graphics one Terry linked looks to be the way to go. I'm not surprised that the white metal one was too much for the undercarriage Nigel, that's a serious lump! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagRigger Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 (edited) Don't be confused between the stonking great wet film old style pods and the Vinten Air Graphics do make a Vinten http://air-graphics.co.uk/shop?keywords=vinten&olsPage=products%2Fac-052-thales-vinten-djrp-recce-pod&page=2 Edited November 13, 2018 by JagRigger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MigModeller Posted November 13, 2018 Author Share Posted November 13, 2018 Thank you all for your replies and identifying my confusion. So I seek a EMI Linescan Recce pod. Are there any plans so I can scratch build it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean the original pod which was about the same length as a droptank it was included in the Italeri 1/72 Jaguar GR.1 kit which was also reboxed by Revell.

tempestfan Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 If @tony.t is who I believe, he did a series called Things under Wings way back when for SAM. While not really under wings, he may have covered it - I don’t recall... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony.t Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Sadly not. I had the scale cutaways for the BAe pod wet film, long since lost. Still waiting for the mythical 1/32 Kitty Hawk Jaguars. T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiG-Mech Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Still looking for ? Did you check Airfix Weapon Set ? If it is the pod, you're looking for, I still have it and dont need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Dick Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Revell did the Recce pod in their 1/72 kit lots of other interesting add on bits in the kit too - added bonus of a jaguar aircraft kit and decals as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoops Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I'm reviving an old thread here, I picked up the Air Graphics pod for use on my build, but I'm not sure about the basic shape. The Air Graphics pod is a perfect circle in cross section, but I get the impression that there is a "crease" or "seam" down the side of the pod based on the photos I've seen. None of the pictures I've found on the internet are great, however, as the pod mostly gets lost in the shadows under the aircraft. Can somebody please point me in the direction of good reference for the EMI Pod? Thank you very much. Hoops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Air Graphics piece is definitely missing the "crease," and I'm realizing leaves a good amount to be desired overall. That is especially when considering the price and shipping.
