Hasegawa Weapons Set VII 1/72

Unboxing and review of Hasegawa weapons set VII

This is a view of Hasegawa's weapons set in 1/72 scale. I brought this from a local store in the Phillippines for about $10.50



Box on the side


Another side.

the pack includes: 

  • 3x AGM 154A JSOW 
  • 3x GBU 31 JDAM
  • 3x AN/AAQ-13 Navigation Pod, usually used by the F-16 and F15E
  • 3x AN/AAQ-14 Targeting POD, the reason why I brought this, to be installed in the F-14. Both the AAQ-13 and AAQ-14 form the LANTRIN pod
  • 3 x AN/ALQ 184
  • 3 x AN/AAQ-13 rack for the F-15
  • 3 x AN/AAQ-14 rack for the F-14, F-15 and F-16
  • 3 x LAU-14 Launcher for the F-14



Layout of weapons to weapons station. Only the F-15 was used as a reference. Better do your research first, as to which goes to what.


Some instructions with a little explanation




Assembly




It comes in three sprues which are just the same, and three decal sheets that are the same.


Decals are just fine


Fine mold, almost no ejection marks.








Details are fine, panel lines are a little shallow. 2 or 3 layers of paint will all make them disappear.



Some come in one piece


Shallow panel lines


The ECM pod. I used this on the warthog



Overall, it's a good product, and will well complement the legacy fighter series. 
Thanks for viewing.
