There is a photo of a F-100D carrying the target on page 13 of Squadron Signal's Aircraft in Action No.1009. I was thinking of using the TDU-10B Tow Target System from the Hasegawa Aircraft Weapons kit No.X48-1. Not sure if they are the same, but maybe close enough? The details of the target mounting in the photo leaves a bit to be desired, and I've hit the end of my in-house references without finding any other information. If anyone can direct me to another source of photos or drawings of this combination I'd appreciate it very much.
One other question - on the same page there are two F-100Ds with an absolutely straight vertical line where the paint meets the area where the paint usually burns off on the aft section of the Super Sabres......... Is is possible that these aircraft were painted grey and the aft section was left unpainted due to the heat burning the paint off?
Thanks all. To reply direct please remove the x's found in my address - my poor attempt at stopping SPAM.
