Guppy Spad: 1/48th ESCI AD-4W Skyraider
This is the original 1/48th ESCI AD-4W Skyraider kit released back in 1979. The molds have since been bought and re-released by Italeri in 2016 (#2757). It is a very basic kit with some errors of its own, however if you wanted to build a 1/48th "Guppy Skyraider" back in the day, this was it (or you could get a conversion kit).
I built my AD-4W as "RM 24" 126840 of VMC-1. This aircraft was credited with shooting down a Po-2 near Seoul, South Korea on June 15, 1953.
