Each and every one of them a great option. The 'Ford' Skyray get my vote for rarity factor but also a fan of both the ADV Tornado and the Eagle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Looks like we'll have ourselves a group build before to long @Col. . This should be fun if it passes the gunfight in November. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnl42 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 (edited) This sounds fun! I have a 1/35 CIWS that I would build for this. Edited June 6, 2019 by dnl42 Fat fingered the initialism. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had heard there once was a ship in the USN that painted one of its CIWS to look like R2-D2 ? They did that because supposedly the CIWS's nickname was/is R2-D2 with a gun. Not that I'm recommending you paint it up like R2-D2. Just a funny story i had heard once. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted June 9, 2019 Author Share Posted June 9, 2019 Anyone else up for this one? Was in my local model shop during Saturday and noticed a few eligible kits; Tamiya's 48th scale Crusader Mk.III "Anti-aircraft tank" along with Dragon's 35th scale Flakpanzer IV Wirbelwind and their 6th scale British Bren Gun w/Anti-Aircraft Tripod. There's a few potential options but I'm sure plenty more exist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vppelt68 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 @Col. now that the "ground based interception" has grown in its significance in this GB you might be able to trawl a name or two (EDIT: actually 4!) from the Flak Alley GB- proposal. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul821 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 I have a couple of Lightnings I(EE that is not the modern pretender) n the stash, which need an incentive to commence building, So I would be up for this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone is most welcome to join in the fun and any ground or water based interception systems will make for an interesting comparison to their airborne equivalents. If anyone wants to model an F-15 ASAT that's cool as well 1 hour ago, Paul821 said: I have a couple of Lightnings I(EE that is not the modern pretender) n the stash, which need an incentive to commence building, So I would be up for this.

Mottlemaster Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Please put my name down for this G/B Probably the Meng Me 163B Komet. I will not be doing the float plane version as that wasnt an interceptor Cheers Alistair 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The float equiped version, as you say, is another matter entirely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
