Wanted: 1/72 USAF Vietnam era bombs/rocket launchers

rickshaw · October 12, 2011, 06:30:41 PM

I'm specifically looking for some USAF Vietnam era bombs/rocket launchers to hang off a B-57B's wings. <=250lb (unstreamlined Mk.82) bombs, 2.75in rocket launcher pods or tubes, Napalm bombs, etc. I need only a few of each (2). Anybody got any spare?

I might have some Mk.82's off a Hasegawa weapons set. I'll have to check when I get home tonight. I'll add it to my calendar since I keep forgetting stuff like that.

Not Mk.82s. I mean the fat, chunky WWII style bombs.

Oooooooooooooh!!! Yeah I might have some. Standby.

This is what I'm looking for - The M117 GP bomb.. I though they came in smaller sizes but apparently not. I've now found the B-57B usually flew with four of these things under the wings (and in the bomb bay).

The other weapons I'm after are BLU-32 Napalm bombs and LAU-3 rocket launchers.

Hasegawa Weapons set No.1 has all three.
You get M-117 X6, BLU-27 X2, and LAU-3 X6.

There's 24 of them in any Revell/Monogram B-52 kit. If anyone has any of those spare ----

OK I have that. Rickshaw, would you PM me your address? Thanks.
