The adoption of the T-7A Redhawk ended the US T-X program, but we are making 1/48 T-50A Conversion set included TX-1, TX-2 PV aircraft for Academy 1/48 T-50 Golden Eagle. When this development will be completed, we will release 1/48 FA-50 Conversion sets included ROKAF, Indonesian AF, Philippine AF, Royal Thailand AF and Iraqi AF too.

We have also completed the development of the 1/48 F/A-50 series. It will be released in the order of ROKAF(F/A-50), Indonesia (T-50I), Philippines (F/A-50PH), Thailand (T-50TH) and Iraq (T-50IQ).

the surprise looser!

 

Did not think the more ambitious Boeing/ Saab proposal would win!

 

interesting kit, will definitely look at it!

 

 

No surprice what so ever.

The better kit (plane and training system) won the day. But I may be a bit biased.

 

The wolfpack offering looks like a nice kit, so defenetly a candidate for the stash.

Would like to build all the three major T-X candidates.

yeah.. Lockheed also needs support in these difficult times....

probably Boeing did loose a bit of the Donald's "unconditional" support as well?

but of course the Saab/Boeing offer could be tailored better to the AF's needs as well being a sort of clean sheet design ;)

 

the stash :nono:, the bench!

The F/A-50 is very different from the T-50A. (Front instrument panels with each glare shields, some antennas and exterior details)

We are preparing for the F/A-50 after the T-50A is released.

And we are discussing with the Academy whether F/A-50's injection kit can be commercialized.

Our plans range from export types such as T-50i, F/A-50PH, T-50TH and T-50IQ too.

Any ideas on where one could buy this when it's available?
I haven't found this kit listed anywhere yet. And wolfpack kits in general seems to be very hard to get hold off.

As I don't have a FB account to ask Wolfpack directly, can any of you please confirm that this kit is still to come?

I mean, they haven't sold out already, have they?

Many thanks, V.P.!

 

Mea culpa, for I missed to check Wolfpack's page beforehand, figuring nothing's changed there... 😳 🥴

Hoping to get an example somewhere in the E.U., as I've come to loathe dealing with customs and postal workers in my little slice of heaven here... 😞
