Hasegawa Grumman TBM-1C Avenger
This is the Grumman TBM-1C Avenger flown by a LTJG Rothwell from USS Petrof Bay (CVE 80). The kit is from Hasegawa, decals are from Techmod sheet 72128. No surprises from either the kit or the decals, a very enjoyable build!

Hasegawa 1/48 F-4G Phantom II "Wild Weasel"
As Captain Terry Martin of the 562nd Tactical Fighter Squadron of the 37th Tactical Fighter Wing told me when I visited the wing at George AFB in May 1982 on assignment from Air Force Magazine to do an article on the Wild Weasels, [...]
Kit Basing Hasegawa and Trumpeter: 1/32 Messerschmitt Me 262B-1a/u1
Revell produced a good 1/32 kit of the 262B. Yet, the definitive 262 kit in the scale requires the combination of Trumpeter's wings from their excellent 262A kit. The wings are matched with Hasegawa's old 262B kit that has the correctly [...]
1/48 Hasegawa Bf-109G-14 Hartmann…..sort of
After 20 or more years, I’m just going to share what I’ve got done so far. The plan was to have an open canopy, but my eyes refuse to coordinate with my fingers on making the canopy cord.
I started this s****r at the height of my AMS [...]
1/48 Hasegawa Ki-45 Kai Tei Toryu "Nick"
Although not free of glitches and requires a considerable attention during construction, Hasegawa's Nick represents a model painter's paradise. The main construction issue is the fit between the wings and fuselage. I cut the flaps' panel [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 P-38J Lightning
With all its short falls concerning mostly with fit issues, Hasegawa's Lightning is very convincing.
Korean War: 1/48 Hasegawa F-86F-30 Sabre
For the recent F-86 Sabre and FJ Fury group build, I chose markings of one of the top U.S. aces of the Korean War: Maj. James Jabara. I used Warbird Decals 48027 Korean War F-86s, Part 2 and 48027 F-86F Common. You need both sheets.

Hasegawa 1/48 Harrier GR Mk. 7
Although not Hasegawa's finest, the late Harrier version model certainly looks purposeful like the real aircraft.
Hasegawa 1/48 F-16D "Barak"
During their service in the IDF, the two seater aircraft were exposed to varying degrees of exposure to the elements. As a result, weathering patterns changed dramatically between the aircraft.
Hasegawa's Falcon kits are simple to build, [...]
B-24 Hasegawa 1:72 as GR.V BZ860 in Operation Storm.

I apologize for the delays in writing the article, but I had a lot of work and wanted to sit down to it calmly. So here we go: The Special Purpose Squadron 1586 originated from the disbanded 301 Bomber Squadron, which lost its [...]
