Thread: USA WW2 planes I want to have in 1/200 Scale

    Default USA WW2 planes I want to have in 1/200 Scale

    I want to have these planes in 1/200 scale. And the plane cards too.
    I think that these are the most representative of the war.
    If I forgot any, please do say so.
    As soon as I can I'll post the places where we can find some of these.

    I've got the mouse cursor ready, as soon as Ares announces the Corsair (and the Lightning, the Thunderbolt, the B-17, et al!)

    New Ray also produced a Grumman F6F Hellcat model.

    Riich models ( http://www.riichmodel.com) produce a Vought OS2U Kingfisher kit in 1/200 scale. It contains two planes with launchers and a choice of decals.

    This OS2U looks great, are they plastic models to mount? Im looking foward to these New Ray models. Sadly some of them are different scales. Some are 1/160, some are 1/190 and others 1/200.
    Thanks

    Just finished reading a book on Eric "Winkle" Brown, the FAA. test pilot. After the war he got to fly the German secret planes to assess them for development work that we and the Americans were doing on jets. The latter part of the book is well worth a read for his assessments.
