1/72 Grumman F-14 Tomcat  Pt.2

Special F-14 Tomcat Sunset Update Sept 2006

 

You may have noticed that the majority of my collection is made of Hasegawa kits. This is because, out of the two leading manufacturers Hasegawa and Fujimi, I found the availability of the Hasegawa to be easier to get hold of.

Also I decided not arm most of the jets, as my main reference material, namely the Tomcat Alley book by David F. Brown, shows the aircraft with out weapons.

Here is the second part of my collection, 1976 -1983.

VF-41 "Black Aces" 1976 - 2001
