Hellenic Falcon: Hasegawa F-16D Block 52+
The Conformal Fuel Tanks and avionics added to the Block 52+ were a quantum leap for the Fighting Falcon in terms interception range and bombing capabilities.
Unlike the real aircraft where the CFTs were made from the same materials like [...]
Aftermarket detailing: IDF RF-4E
An easy access to comprehensive reference material, not to mention scrutiny in salvaged aircraft led to this project. This was an opportunity to exploit the full range of resin aftermarket kits designed for the Hasegawa 1/48 RF-4E. Detail [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 F-4EJ Kai Super Phantom
The venerable Phabulous. kit was used again to depict JASDF's Mitsubishi manufactured Phantom.
Hasegawa 1/48 P-51D Mustang
In one of my earlier posts I'd mentioned I had build several Accurate Miniatures, Eduard, Airfix, Monogram/Revell, and Tamiya P-51's but not a Hasegawa kit. That is until now and it is a decent kit IMHO. The cockpit is adequate but not [...]
A Captured Lightning Bolt, Hasegawa J2M3 ‘Jack’ 1/72
This wasn’t on my radar, but when I found Rising Decals MM72-0101 Dying Suns Pt.2 decal sheet in the decal bin at my LHS, I knew I had this Hasegawa ‘B2’ kit and thought I’d give it a go. I have seen Aircraft BI-01 in many photos [...]

I have completed a couple of the Hasegawa [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 AV-8B Harrier II Plus
The Harrier II Plus is not among Hasegawa's finest models. It has fit issues and sparse cockpit. Yet, thanks to the finely engraved panel lines and accurate dimensions it can be build into a descent representation of American development [...]
1/48 Hasegawa P-40K-5
Another P-40 from the Bebout Curtiss Factory and this one I like to call Snake on a Plane. I didn't have a Hasegawa P-40K but a did have their P-40E plus a AMTech P-40 with the Black Box resin tail. The Hasegawa P-40 K kit is as scarce as [...]
1/72 SBD-5 Dauntless – VB-16, April 1944.
“White 35” was a SBD-5 assigned to VB-16 on the USS Lexington (CV-16) in April 1944. It was flown by LTJG George Blacken & RM Leo Boulanger.
I used a 1996 boxing of the Hasegawa SBD-5, which came with decals for White 45 of the [...]
