Re: HM F-105 Thunderchief!!!

Hi,

New weapons system (of course), new electronic device (attached to the fueslage), new fusealge is needed at at least.

Hence, HM will do the single seat version first.

William

Thanks for the info. William. Now some of the differences that have been highlighted, does this cause a major problem? Will we still see the G?

Hi,

Thanks for the infromation. The tail plane between the single and double seater is also a major difference.

Hi Jay,

To be frank, the "G" "F" will not be made in the near future. We prefer to finish with the B and D series first.

But we will keep in mind with the "G" for sure.

Well - I am taking this as "and the double seat version will follow" Didnīt really know so far that the "F" and "G" fuselage had been "stretched" a little - it reminds me a bit of SEPECAT Jaguar...

I'm down for the B (hopefully in 'bare-metal' finish just as you did with the F-100s) and D in SEA camo! TY

Re: HM F-105 Thunderchief!!!

I am really grateful that William and Hobby Master are producing a F105. The 'Thud' has always been a favourite of mine and the model will be a fitting tribute, along with other HM models, to some very brave airmen of this era. Thank you HM

Re: HM F-105 Thunderchief!!!

I think if HM does a "B", we can probably expect a Thunderbirds F-105B. Though I will probably not get one, that would be one beautiful airplane. As for me, I looking forward to an F-105D in SEA camouflage with a full load out. After that, a two-seat F-105F or G will be great to see.

This is going to be a welcomed in any collection....That Memphis Belle II F-105 is Bud Jones bird right?
That bird had 2 kill markings on it too.
