Radar models

Donald:

I have to admit, this is a really different idea, and I don't believe I have seen anything of this nature. I know there was the radar van for the 90 mm skysweeper in 1/32 scale some years ago, and there may have been a kit of the radar van for the patriot missile system done after it got all that publicity in the first gulf war. Beyond that, nothing, and certainly nothing from W.W.II era. Somewhere, long ago, I did see a large model of a British Chain-Home radar station circa 1940, but that was a completely scratch built model.

There isn't a missile kit for ARII listed but it's just a matter of time. Or buy the Heller and the Arii support equipment.

must have been a honker..even in smal scales.

Yes, there is a missile launcher. It's the only one of the set I have.
