This is the Revell
1/32 scale JAS Grippen, now the kit is out of production and I am lucky to get 5
of this kit fro m e-bay seller in
Germany, I built the kit straight from the box
but I have to modified the detail of the cockpit and re-do the recess line and
re-drilled to make a holes along the fuselage to imitated screws. I changed the
antenna with a needle so it will not broken. Revell did a good job with this
plane, I don't have any difficulty to made the models because the fuselage and
wings can be joined so perfect without gap, and I use only a little bit putty.
This jet is as big as 1/32 scale F-16 Falcon.
I painted the jet with 2 color schemes light
grey and dark aggressor grey from model masters and use weathering method with
water color to make the fuselage a little bit dirty because of oils spills.

JAS-29 Grippen can carry AIM-9
Sidewinder, AIM-7 Sparrow, AIM-120 Amraam, AGM-65 Maverick, Bombs, Rocket pods
and Anti ship missiles.
Anyway, This is a good model kit
and I am happy to have one of this rare model kit.
