Hey Guys,

Its me again. I dont know about ya'll, but I prefer the 1:48th and larger scale models. 1:72 is ok and you can collect more of them, but for detail, 1:48 + is the way to go.
So, using that reasoning, and the fact that I have posted an aim 120 amraam last week, I thought I would share this site with 4 more missiles.
These are 1:48 scale and the "harm" has the "launch rails" that you can build and attach to your 1:48 scale modern fighter planes such as the A-6, THUNDERBOLT II, and several other jets.
So here they are Guys, they arent much as far as kits go, but as an accessory to a kit they look to be great.

http://kancho.muncho.org/w_index.html ON THIS LINK YOU WILL FIND CONVENTIONAL BOMS, SMART BOMBS, AIR TO AIR AND AIR TO GROUND MISSILES FOR 1:48 SCALE MODELS
I will be back later, maybe with something else.

Howdy Hans,

You're quite welcome, I know that alot of the modern jets/bombers I see that have been completed look great, but they appear to be missing something.....weapons on wing pylons usually.
I understand that designing a model can be tedious and grueling, and after designing the model, fitting all the parts on the page, using all available space, making small missiles and bombs would be the last thing a designer would wanna do. I know I would be wanting a beer when I finished the plane.
Atleast there is someone out there who saw a need and filled it for us. Now we can arm our "paper airforces" for an added touch of realism.
Anyway, I am glad that someone has a use for the above listed weapons, I knew they would be useful to someone.

happy modeling,
