1/48 S-2T Conversion Set:





Personally, I don't need the conversion as I already have something on this front, though others might be interested. 

That said, the engines could be interesting to use on other Wright R-1820 powered platforms such as:

  • DC-3/C-47 - a different sort of turbo-Dak
  • B-17 - get two sets and make a turbo-Fortress (maybe a firebomber?)
  • Grumman HU-16 Albatross?
  • Lockheed Hudson?

Or simply do S-2Ts for other users such as Australia or Canada?
