Mitsubishi LR-1

Now let's modify it!
Because Hasegawa's kit is a search and rescue aircraft type of the Air Self-Defense Force, it is necessary to make it "Atavism". 

This time we will be working on the last number of LR-1, JG-2020.
So we chose a large 90 gallon chip tank. 

Modification of fuselage.
The sliding door of the SAR type is adopted because it is necessary to drop life-saving materials in the air, but the LR-1 has a normal leaf door, so the rail of the sliding door is cut off. 

patchwork! 

Restoration of the door. 

The nose is also restored.
It takes 12 hours for the putty to cure, so let's sleep. 

Polished. 

When I paint the two camouflage colours, it looks like a JGSDF aircraft at once.

Mission complete! 

 

 

The LR-1 has now been decommissioned and its successor, the LR-2 (King Air 350), is now in service.
