I expect to see this this fall. V.P. Edited March 29, 2022 by Homebee 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christer A Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 The multicolored parts sort of hints at a A-10A at some point, doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you would need is a new "old" instrument panel. A pave penny pylon and your good. all the rest of the antennas were either carried by later "A's" or they can be removed (ALE-47 sensors) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinetic new item will be an Italian jet aircraft. Do you know something we don’t know about GWH? 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be A, A+ and C variants. I have seen the CAD and they are quite promising with new level of surface detail and accuracy. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porkbits Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Oh man, a GWH A-10 is my holy grail kit. I could build a couple and call my modeling hobby done, as I’ve run out of room. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mycapt65 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I thought that thing hanging down off the starboard fuselage under the cockpit was the pave penny pod that wasn't used on A-10Cs? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is and it was used on the A-10C, though I don't know if it is anymore. Here's a couple of C's with the Pavy Penny fitted. Here's a C with it and the mount removed. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a couple of C's with the Pavy Penny fitted. Here's a C with it and the mount removed. The pave penny (AN/AAS-35V) was used pretty extensively in the 80's and 90's but it was phased out once the LITENING and Sniper targeting pods came online. Even though the Pave Penny was phased out, the pylon stayed attached to the jet until the early 2010's at which point it started getting removed altogether, leaving behind the 4 bolts just aft of the nose gear door on the foreword fuselage. So it's possible to have seen an early A-10C fitted with the Pave Penny, but it was probably inoperative at that point. If you're going to build a pre-2010 aircraft you could get away with including it in your build, but if it's a post-2010 Hawg you may want to consider deleting it.

Not 100% sure but remember reading it was from Red Flag ? The pilot was able to get into a twisting mock dogfight in two different occasions. Supposedly beat them both to a guns use solution.
