Aircraft Stores
Introduction
I created this page because I found it difficult to find any decent pictures about the
aircraft stores that you can buy for 1/300th scale aircraft. I've added some comments on the
stores which may or may not be helpful. CNC, Scotia, SDD and Skyraider all
make various stores with Skyraider having the biggest range, but they are also the most
difficult to order from. Some of the other companies that make stores that I know of are GHQ,
CNC and SDD but the ranges are limited. Each GHQ aircraft comes with a very nice selection of stores but their models are very
expensive. I believe if you know the sprue number you can order them from GHQ.
If you have any pictures of stores not covered, please email me (along with any info) them
to me so I can add them to this page.
Click on the images to see a larger version. Note most of the images will
display the model 2-3 times bigger than actual size and some of the stores have already been used!
Collectair CABB1 50Kg/100Lb Bomb (x10). These are pretty small and look more like
iron bombs for WW2 rather than Modern.
|
Collectair CABB2 250/500Lb Bomb (x5). These are much larger and fatter than the 50kg bombs and
would look too big for most fighters.
|
Collectair CABB3 Medium Drop Tank Two Fins (x5). A good size for smaller fighters.
|
Collectair CABB5 Large Drop Tank (x5). This is much fatter than the medium drop tank and may be too big for some aircraft.
|
Collectair CABB6 Torpedoes (x5). I haven't seen the small and large torpedeos from Scotia but
these are nice (and I've already used the other 4). They are well suited to the Italian (and German) ones as they have the stabliser
on the rear of them.
|
SDD Modern aircraft stores. There is only a couple of different types in this pack and
they all look like drop tanks. Some look like they have fins but it could be part of the
flash from the casting.
|
Homemade Bombs and missiles. The were made from stretched sprue (heated and then stretched) and then the shapes were carved with paper fins. I made them years ago and they still look useable.
|
GHQ bombs and fuel tanks. These came off some MkII Hurricanes and are excellent quality. Usually
you get more than you need in their packs and end up with some spares. This is good as their models are very expensive!
|
Navwar rockets and missiles These came off a Navwar Mil24 Hind but the rockets can be used on other ground attack aircraft. The castings are good by Navwar standards.
|
AS-7 and AS-10 CNC missiles. From the Soviet ASM missile pack by CNC. Theres a bit of flash but it comes off very easily.
|
AS11, AS-12 and AS-14 CNC missiles The other missiles from the CNC pack. Very crisp castings and some can be adapted to air-to-air missiles.
