1/48 a-10a

Doing something that is out of my comfort zone! This is my second attempt at doing a jet…. First time i kinda failed… This kit has been in my stash for a very long time which is why the box is so beat up

I started this not too long ago and i got the cockpit mostly completed



I did get stuck though… i can’t find any pictures of these objects (I’m not a jet guy so i have no clue what I’m looking at)

Any help would be appreciated or if anybody has any books to recommend that would be great to

Thanks!!!

I just looked at the Aires cockpit and i think it might be wrong, doesn’t look like the pictures. Could Aires have screwed up?

Well, these photos are copyrighted from 2000. It all depends on what year that Aires modeled their cockpit. I know that the A-10 has updated its cockpit over the course of its service life, even before the A-10C came along. By 2000, I believe that the cockpit was NVG compatible, so it likely would have had a slightly different configuration than those in the 70’s or 80’s up to at least Desert Storm
