About product

Caracal Models 1:48 Air National Guard Fairchild A-10C Part 2

A marking sheet in 1:48 scale for the upgraded A-10C attack aircraft in service with the flying units of the Air National Guard. The name designates it as the second part, so it follows on from an earlier release on the same theme. How many machines the sheet covers and where they come from is given in the enclosed instructions. The package holds the markings, not the model.

What the letter C means

The A-10 came about as a single-purpose machine for supporting ground forces: the whole airframe is literally built around a large-caliber seven-barrel cannon, the engines sit high above the rear fuselage and an armored tub protects the pilot. The A-10C version is the result of an upgrade program that gave the machines a digital cockpit with multifunction displays, new controls and the ability to work with precision guided munitions and a targeting pod. It is in exactly this form that Thunderbolt IIs fly with Guard units as well.

Before you start on the markings

Check that your airframe matches the upgraded form; the cockpit and the pylons on older releases of kits differ from the later standard. The gray finish of the attack aircraft is matte, so spray a gloss intermediate coat under the markings and flatten the surface again once it is dry, so that the result does not read as glossy islands.

Who the sheet is for

  • Builders of modern American attack aircraft
  • Modelers who collect markings for one type
  • Anyone interested in the Air National Guard of the United States
  • Builds with an emphasis on the later form of the cockpit

FAQ

You do not. Each part is a product in its own right; the contents of the parts do not overlap, though, so they complement each other.

The theme is the upgraded C version. On older models check the form of the cockpit and the pylons, so that the markings match the airframe.

The number of machines is given in the instructions enclosed with the sheet.
