« Last post by Jeffry Fontaine on Today at 03:52:34 AM »I eMailed Gerry Asher/FOX 3 Studios fourteen years ago (2012) and was informed that they are now OOP with no current plans to bring it back into production and nothing further has come from that correspondence.A two-seat Sabre in 1/48th scale would be nice to see some day. The only one that I have knowledge of went out of business/production years ago but maybe some day soon...I have a 1/48 Fox 3 Studios TF-86 Conversion in the stash

« Last post by Jeffry Fontaine on Today at 03:20:44 AM »Pretty much but with eight wheels and a substantially shorter missile container.Replace the original SCUD missile with a large cannister of similar dimensions to the original missile and call it an upgrade to a new weapon system that was designed to replace the SCUD missile. As for physical details, well, leave that to their collective imaginations.So, almost like the RSD-10 Pioneer/SS-20 Saber?

« Last post by Jeffry Fontaine on Today at 03:15:33 AM »All depends on how they will be employed. "Move out and draw fire" might have worked thirty years ago but that practice might not go as well today. That said, "Reconnaissance by fire" should still be on the menu. There is also the larger ammunition selection to consider such as actual HE rounds in addition to HEAT, WP, APDS, APFSDS. The ammunition stocks are also plentiful and that could make a real difference.
