1/144 Douglas C-133 + PGM-17 Thor - Roden

( This is a machine translation. Please allow for possible misinterpretations in the text. )

--The US military has recognized the importance of strategic transport aircraft from early on, and has been developing transport aircraft such as the Globemaster.
――In the 1950s, we requested Douglas to carry a larger transport aircraft.
――Development was promoted as a four-engine turboprop with high wings, low floor, and lamps, and in 1954, the first mass-produced aircraft flew for the first time without a prototype.
――In 1959, the B type, which had an extended fuselage and a rear cargo door that opened to the left and right, went into production.
――At that time, it was operated as the only aircraft in the US Air Force that could transport ballistic missiles, but all aircraft were retired in 1971 due to the inauguration of the C-5 Galaxy and aircraft fatigue.

* Figures and auxiliary vehicles are not included.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PGM-17_Thor

The PGM-17A Thor was the first operational ballistic missile of the U.S. Air Force (USAF). Named after the Norse god of thunder, it was deployed in the United Kingdom between 1959 and September 1963 as an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) with thermonuclear warheads. Thor was 65 feet (20 m) in height and 8 feet (2.4 m) in diameter.

1/144 Hawker Tempest F.6 'Middle East Operations' - Mark I

 1/144 Hawker Tempest F.6 'Middle East Operations' - Mark I

The Hawker Tempest Mk.VI was the RAF's piston-engined fighter, which evolved as a Mk.V development with a more powerful Sabre V engine. Its prototype first flew in May 1944, while the first aircraft were available in July & August 1945.

As with other Tempests, Mk.VI orders were reduced when the war ended, of 300 plus aircraft only 142 were actually built. They were delivered to five RAF squadrons in the Middle East in 1946/47 to   Nos.247 and 6 Squadrons being the first, followed by Nos. 213, 8 and 39.

The Tempest Mk.VI was a single-seat monoplane aircraft, of all metal construction, powered by a Napier Sabre V or VA engine. DH or Rotol four-bladed propellers were used. It featured a bubble canopy and a retractable undercarriage. Compared to the Mk.V it had carburettor air intakes repositioned to the wing roots, oil cooler placed behind the the coolant radiator and additional oil coolant radiator installed in the starboard wing. It was fitted with four 20mm Hispano cannons in the wings and it could carry 45-gal or 90-gal drop tanks. The Tempest could also perform as a fighter-bomber, carrying a wide variety of bombs up to 1000 lbs.

The Tempest Mk.VIs (re-designated F Mk.6 in mid-1947) were involved in such delicate actions in the ME region, such as Canal Zone defence, the British Palestine handover, Israeli-Egyptian hostilities and unrests in Iraq and Eritrea. By March 1950 all the units gave up their Tempests.

Colour schemes included in the kit:

1) Hawker Tempest F Mk.6, NX129, Sky JV-D, No.6 Sq., Royal Air Force, RAF Station Khartoum, Sudan, spring 1948

2) Hawker Tempest F Mk.6, NX143, Red GN-H, No.249 'Gold Coast' Sq., Royal Air Force, Habbaniya Air Base, Iraq, 1947

3) Hawker Tempest F Mk.6, NX151, White E, No.213 'Ceylon' Sq., Royal Air Force, RAF Station Deversoir (Abu Sultan), Egypt, 1949

4) Hawker Tempest F Mk.6, NX135, Black V, No.6 Sq., Royal Air Force, detachment at RAF Station Nicosia, Cyprus, early 1949
