F-104G ZELL
« on: September 05, 2011, 10:25:55 AM »
I'm interested in modelling this rocket take-off assisted 'variant' of the Starfighter, but lack info on the actual launch platform...  Anyone here who can help with pictures and drawings?

Thanks,

Domi

Thanks for your help so far, but I already had most of those views.  It's the platform that is proving very elusive!

Yes, the idea is to create a conversion set for the Revell 1/144 kit...

There is bitter problem with base construction for launching system, it look like that USA and German did not the same?



Or maybe I am wrong?

Hmmm...  Srecko is definitely too nice!  But no, I think the scale is not too small at all.  It's a beautiful kit Revell gave us, and I think it's time to do something with it!

I love that picture, Srecko!!!!!  Any more like this???????

I have send emails to my friends researchers in USA to see if they could help. This image is all I have seen.
