Tony Whittingham Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Hello All Starfighter experts, Does anyone have dimensions for the bomb dispenser seen on the centreline rack of Canadian and NATO Starfighter? I’m looking to scratch build one in 1/32 scale. Any help would be greatly appreciated. TW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creepy Pete Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 The Airdoc book says the RCAF MN-1A pod is 4 metres long and has a diameter of 43 centimetres. You could also just buy the Videoaviation SUU-21 for your NATO F-104's, which is basically the same thing: http://www.videoaviation.com/accessories/132-suu-21-bomb-dispenser-closed/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Martin Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 The Canadian ones were shorter than the standard because of the nose gear. Just the nose cone was different. Pat Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Videoaviation pod is an excellent buy, and comes complete with practice bombs. I've got one for my 1/32 F-100, which i shall build in the near future.
