Modelling
the Harrier I and II - In over 30 years of service, the
Harrier has seen significant combat action for the British
Royal Navy and the USMC: from the Falklands to Bosnia and
Kosovo, from the First Gulf War to Afghanistan, the Harrier
has played a key role. It has also seen service for Italy,
Spain, and India. Distinctive and widely recognised, the Harrier
was the world’s first VSTOL aircraft and its appeal
for the modeller is clear. This title covers modelling the
Harrier across a variety of scales, from the early version
P.1127 through to later models. Advice on weathering, superdetailing,
conversions and display bases combines with a wealth of
recommended reference sources to create this packed and informative
guide to modelling the Harrier.
Gunner:
An Illustrated History of World War II Aircraft Turrets and
Gun Positions - The amazing quality of the pictures in
this book is stunning. Close up photography is something
special and the authors of this book have braught this up
to a new level. They took pictures of planes that I've seen
in real life as well and these pictures took me back to that
moment. The anekdotes of World War 2 veterans make this book
even more worthwile and in combination with a similar book
(Cockpit) by the same authors this book is a must for airplane
and World War 2 enthusiasts.
B-2
Spirit: Combat Legends - The Northrop B-2 Spirit was
developed in great secrecy as a multi-role bomber
capable of delivering both conventional and nuclear ammunitions.
The revolutionary B-2 Spirit is the first "Invisible"
flying wing bomber. Originally designed only for the ultimate
scenario, has been deployed with devastating effect in Kosovo
and most recently in Afghanistan. Bill Sweetman is an internationally
acclaimed expert and credited by Tom Clancy as being "a
Genius."
WWII
US Army Fighter Modeling Masterclass - From Airacobras
to Warhawks, from Thunderbolts to Lightnings, this book covers
both the history of scale World War 2 US Army fighters, and
how to get the most from modeling this subject. Step-by-step
guides to creating miniature masterpieces combine with color
images that clearly demonstrate key modeling techniques. This
book also features superb examples of the work of top aviation
modelers that will inspire and challenge. Jerry Scutts, has
written over 40 books on subjects ranging from US Navy floatplane
fighters in World War 2 to the exploits of USAF Phantom IIs
over Vietnam. Brett Green has written Modelling the Messerchmitt
Bf 110 for the Osprey Modelling series, and is the founder
of HyperScale.com, an on-line vitual magazine for scale aircraft
and armor modelers.
1/32
F-161 Fighter "Sufa", Israel - This specially
developed version of this potent aircraft started life as
a Block 50/52 F-16 and was given an extensive increase in
fuel capacity, as well as upgrades needed by the IAF. The
Sufa (It means Thunderstorm) is easily recognizable by the
distinctive conformal 600 gallon fuel tanks that give the
aircraft a range of up to 1000 miles… enough to cover
the entire Middle East region, including Iran. It is equipped
with both American and Israeli weapons. Its radar, the Northrop
Grumman APG-68, is also more advanced than any other in the
IAF fleet. The F-16I is also equipped with the Synthetic Aperture
Radar system and Litening navigation pod, giving the F-16I
all-weather, day and night attack capabilities. It also has
internally mounted FLIR (forward looking infrared) viewers
and Israeli state-of-the-art systems hardware. To accurately
reproduce this special aircraft, Academy made many modifications
to its award winning 1/32 scale F-16 with extensive retooling
for additional parts and upgrades. Weapon systems include
the GBU-31 (V)3 and AGM-130, Python 4, and GBU-38. Photo etched
metal parts have been added throughout the fuselage along
with a turned brass Pitot tube. Naturally, a kit of this precision
and quality should only be completed with the accuracy of
a Cartograf decal sheet.
