Question about 1/48 Hasegawa Ju 87 G2

[Spitfires Forever]

Hello all,

This is aimed at those who may have built this kit. I was wondering if the G-2 Stuka kit has the same components as the D-5 kit such as the bomb cradle and other components for the D-5 kit. I would prefer the Hasegawa kit to the Italeri version with the atrocious upper cowling fit. If anybody can give me info on this subject it would be great.

Thanks

While it includes the ordnance (SC250 and 4 x SC50) and the dive brakes, it lacks the centerline bomb crutch, and the underwing bomb racks.

This page has lists of what parts are in what boxing's of various Hasegawa kits.   Well worth bookmarking as it as a very handy resource.   It also shows what a pain Hase kits are, given a lot have poor decals, or common boxing's tend not to have the bit you want......

Thanks Troy

Yes, the Hasegawa kit certainly has its warts too, maybe I have to wait until Airfix comes out with a D/G model. I have been seriously considering the old Monogram model. With a little work it can be a fun build and look pretty nice. I can use wire for tge actuators and beef up the cockpit with PE parts. Thanks again for yor timely help.

Cheers
