I'll probably buy two of the CASA C-295M's when (if) it's brought out in 1/48.

One to supply engines for another planned build & one to be Australian military (not sure which service at the moment).

I don't think anyone has plans for a 1/48 one...

Yeah, well, I'm hopeful based on the quote from the Answer Plastic Kits site below. ;)

The spiel that went with the announcement - translation by Google.

Quote
: Good Evening on Friday ... evening.
We hope that the moods are good :)
As the 1/48 scale model is already at the final stage of production, and its smaller 'brother' 1/72 in preparation, we decided to reveal what next model we are currently working on.
This time, we start from the 1/72 scale, because it's a 'bigger deal'. CASA C-295. Of course there will be several versions, including patrol ones. And of course Polish C-295M.
Soon more details ...


Now, reading that, it looks like there is the distinct possibility that there will be a 1/48 scale version coming out later (I assume if 1/72 purchases are strong enough).

Greg, you & I need to start a campaign to get that happening a.s.a.p., mate! :D

I'm sure I saw a photo of sprue stacks for the C295, but can't find it now!
