      Hello one and all... So I did a scan back to 2015 and didn't see anything for this subject. So I’m proposing a Group build for all things Republic Aviation. This would include the Original Seversky Aircraft Company and its aircraft. This will be take two for this. 

 

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_Aviation
 

Even if an aircraft is not on this list, if you or anyone can show a Republic/Seversky connection thats reasonable I will allow it. Many famous types and prototypes have born the name of Republic Aircraft. If anyone is interested please let me know ? You can build a P-35 or an 2pa in Japanese markings. That or maybe an Seversky AT-12 Guardsman. Then there are of course the P-43 Lancer and P-47 Thunderbolt. Or maybe you fancy a jet, there are of course the Thunderjets, Thunderstreaks, and Thunderflashes. Then last but definitely not least there is the Thud or Thunderchief. Standard rules would apply of course. 
       A list of qualified aircraft. 
 

 

Seversky SEV-3 Single-engine three-seat amphibian

 

Seversky P-35 1935 Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft

 

Seversky A8V Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft

 

Seversky XP-41 Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft

 

Republic P-43 Lancer Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft

 

Republic P-44 Rocket Unbuilt single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft

 

Republic P-47 Thunderbolt Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter

 

Republic XP-69 Unbuilt single-engine single-seat propeller fighter

 

Republic XP-72 Prototype single-engine single-seat propeller fighter

 

Republic RC-3 Seabee Single-engine four-seat pusher propeller amphibious aircraft

 

Republic XF-12 Rainbow Four engine long-range reconnaissance/transport aircraft

 

Republic F-84 Thunderjet Single-engine single-seat jet fighter-bomber

 

Republic XF-91 Thunderceptor Single-seat jet/rocket interceptor

 

Republic F-84F Thunderstreak Single-engine single-seat jet fighter

 

Republic XF-103 Unbuilt single-seat jet/ramjet interceptor

 

Republic RF-84F Thunderflash Single-engine single-seat jet reconnaissance aircraft

 

Republic XF-84H Thunderscreech Prototype single-engine single-seat turboprop fighter

 

Republic F-105 Thunderchief Single-engine single-seat jet fighter-bomber

 

Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II 1972 Twin-engine single-seat jet ground attack aircraft

 

 

Republic-Ford JB-2 (1944) pulse-jet pilotless guided missile, an American copy of the German V-1 flying bomb

Id like to discuss wether or not to include Fairchild/Republic (A-10), anyone have thoughts on this matter ? 

As the last of the Republic House that saw service, I think it would be fair to do so, IMHO :think:...

Yes I agree with @Jfgred1, A-10 should be in.

It's more than 40 years since I built a Matchbox P-47 so please add me to the list, Dennis. This time I'd rather build a Tamiya razorback, though. V-P

Well whenever I open my Eduard drawer I'm confronted by a stack of Bubbletops, so I'm certainly in!

 

Also got a couple of Thuds in the stash too. Would love someone to release the P-43 in scale but sadly Dora Wings seem to have stopped downsizing to 144th 😔

Welcome aboard, does anyone do a Razorback D ? If so it couldn't be to hard to back date that to a P-43 ? It’s very similar shapes just a wee bit smaller in all dimensions.

Well, this didn't take you long to get going again Dennis :thumbsup2:.

Please renew my membership - I'm not sure what with yet, but it will have jet engines for sure.

 

Cheers

Hi,

 

I'd be interested in participating. 

I've always considered the A-10 as a member of the Republic family.

 

I'm not sure what I'll build for this one (we're talking about 2022 after all), a P-47 is highly likely.

 

Cheers, Stefan.

Yes, I'm in again, I've acquired the Revell 1/48 Hog in readiness.

Add me to the list Dennis. Nothing in the stash that would be suitable right now, but if it gets through the poll it might prompt me to buy an XF-12
