--------------------

 

This is the new resin F-4B, F-4N & F-110A Airframe Conversion Set for the Tamiya kit from Cutting Edge Modelworks This set also REQUIRES set CEC32180. This set provides the ADDITIONAL parts necessary to convert the Tamiya F-4J kit into a F-4B or F-4N. This set will NOT work with ANY of the Revell F-4 kits! The seven important parts in this set include the following part related to the wings: rear lower wing/fuselage extensions for the J79-GE-8 nozzles. 

The fuselage conversion parts include: 

  • a complete resin radome that will accept the IR seeker assemblies; 

  • plain IR seeker with AAA-4 (AN/APR-30) bulges; 

  • unslotted stabilators fitted to all F-4Bs (as built) and remained on nearly all F-4Bs until the end of their service lives; 

  • the rear fuselage extensions for the early J79-GE-8 engine nozzles (nozzles available separately).

Resin casting is of a very high quality and all the detail is very well done with no air bubbles.  This new resin set from Cutting Edge Modelworks will permit modelers to convert the Tamiya F-4J kit into a F-4B or F-4N.
