VMA131Marine Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Oh, this is awesome. The only other kit I’m aware of was/is a horribly expensive 3D printed version. It’s great we’ll have a mainstream kit in plastic. https://www.hlj.com/1-144-scale-jmsdf-trdi-kawasaki-p-1-fxna061 Maybe Hasegawa will do this in 1/72 as well.

k5054nz Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Definitely keen to get this and do it as a What If? (should have been*? 😁) RNZAF example. *I have the utmost faith in the P-8, I was just hoping for a P-1 and C-2 fleet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Poultney Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Looks great! I like this aircraft, might have to pick one up. Just wish they'd reissue the Vulcan and update the Victor with blue steel or accurate K2 wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
general melchett Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Great subject choice. With those big cockpit windows, large nose wheels, long wings and stubby fuselage it almost looks like an eggplane of itself. An unholy alliance of a P-3C, DC-8 and KC-135, on that basis alone, I might well pick one up. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
