Nice, thanks

VERY useful stuff! Thanks!

Glad to be of help.

Was surprised to find this myself. It is from Jan Roskams, Airplane Design, Part 4. Apparently nice portion of the book is dedicated to weapon installation and military payload with some interesting additional data (for instance recoil data for cannons and so on).

Thanks for posting this, I reckon I can make use of it at some point.

Most of the blueprints seem to be highly inaccurate shape wise, I wouldnt advice anyone to work on the basis of these.

New to your forum. Found you while searching for USAF Vietnam era, MER and TER information. Modeling in 1/32 scale and need good quality photos.

Any help, Thanks Barry

Sorry Barry, I don't have any photos. Just found those drawings in a book.

Supah, I suspected they would be quiet off. Such simple drawings usually are. Do you have any knowledge if at least dimensions are right?

Cheers
