1/35 Centauros tank destroyer
1/35 Tunguska M1 air defense system

1/700 angled deck Essex carrier
YES YES a 1/48Cheyanne please and roger it was made a while back in 1/72 But try and find one :P  
and a 1/48 F-86/H the last and MEANIST  F-86
AND I would also love to see the twin cannon Mi-24 Hind-F?
I'll agree with you about the Rooivalk in injection form. We have kits in injection of the Apache, Mangusta, a newly tooled Euro Tigre and I expect it will only be a matter of time before Tamiya or Hasegawa tool up for a kit of the new gunship Kawasaki is cooking up for the Japanese army. Why not an injected Rooivalk?

As for the F-86H, if 1/72 intrests you, Special Hobby recently put one out on the market.

On the matter of the twin cannon Hind, what scale are you after? I think I saw one in 1/48 by Trumpeter in my LHS not long ago.

Here's a link to the Hind kit:

I took a look at it in my LHS today and I think it will take a lot of work. I have a strong suspicion they reverse engineered the old Monogram Hind-D kit for it.

Brilliant idea! Hanging a Bell X-1 below the B-19A would be cool  :rolleyes:  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

I found the F-86 H on greatmodels but I'm still having a hard time with the Hind F thanx for the stock # hopefully it will make finding one easier.as for if it was based on the monogram hind D I have built that 4 times (I LOVE Hinds :wub:  :wub:  :wub: ) so I should be able to deal with any build probs in common with the mono kit

QuoteXB-19 & XB-15
Well, if you can scratchbuild the fuselage and don't mind working in 1/144 scale, the Boeing Model 314 Clipper from Airfix would be a starting point for a XB-15 since they shared the same wing.

I'm trying to imagine some photos of these planes... More-than-real, to fool JMNs, as usual...

I don't think it would be all that difficult, IF there were some detailed pictures available of the thing. All I can find are some side views that don't show the engine pylons. Always been a 'want' for me too.
