Tornado ECR Italian air force

[mark31]

So here im with my build

the tornado ecr from italeri 1/32

What extras do i have for this one.

Still need to order the harms from reskit.

the plan will be to make this one in flight just after take off.

my inspiration is this pic.

low and gear up

But ofcourse one from Italy.

going to put the harms under the wing like this.

normaly the are under the belly but here the proof its been done.

 

Also going to make a few improvments but more about that later

now going to see iff i have all the paint to start.

LED? Nice!

Do you know what those small parts (18-23PE) are in real plane? Sensors?
