I happen to stumble across some RNoAF F-35A pictures.

Seems they now are equipped with a drag chute. Does anyone know if there is a 1/72 aftermarket set?

 

I think its doable specially in 1/72 scale

I already se the Israeli airforce putting secret electronic stuff in this stealthy extra volume! ;)

 It doesn't look like that complex a shape, make your own - laminate some plastic card, sand to shape, scribe according to taste and/or ability. Glue into position, build rest of kit. Easy, even if the subject is as ugly as a bucketful of monkey bums.

Been thinking since I saw this topic first time, and wonder if the gondola from an Tornado GR1/4 might be a good starting point? 🤔

Hi Boman

 

Well I been trying to convince myself to do that (cast a master) for Gironixix Resins LTD very typical of our own projects, so If you need one in 1/72 scale then contact me privately  and I send it to you because you are the one who push be a bit to do it (easy fellow I am)

Maybe you can help with more photos to help speed project to be shipped next January 2022

 

Regards

Thanks Armando, but I build 1/48. My loss I guess 😜
