I'm not 100% sure, but I think the instructions are wrong for the Portuguese Air Force when it comes to the tail. The base of the tail of the PoAF is the ADF one. The parts for this tail seem to be on sprue B.

Oh, now I get what you mean. Yes, now I noticed it. Should be easy enough to do since all parts are there. You just need to shave off the bird slicers

For those interested
I bought this model and it has the "bump" tail as well but they don't mention that the particular PRT AF model they depicted needs it (but it does)
I find the instructions poor in that and other areas. eg: a right side panel that doesnt exist on the PRT version (Page 6, Figure 8 )

I wonder if a blk 50 falcon could be built out of this kit though...

A block 52 might be possible, the sprues seem to have the C tail base, the larger wheels, the bulged main landing gear covers, the C landing gear. For a block 50 you need the big mouth intake and the GE engine exhaust.

Thanks for the info, mate! A 52 is good enough and so I reckon it makes no difference between K48100 and K48102 in terms of sprues.

Looking at the sprues at the Britmodeller review, it seems everything is there for a Block 52. There is even an HTS pod to make a Wild Weasel aircraft (SEAD) so yes, in terms of sprues there is no difference between 100 and 102. Happy modelling and I would like your opinion on the build whenever you start it!

Cheers,

Maciej

From what I read on their official site on internet, they seem to include a magnetic system for adding weaponry on the model, which seems nice and something of a novely I would think. Also said to be a new molds kit.

I am glad I haven't used my Dark Falcon decal sheet yet. I hope this new tool turns out much better than the failed attempt...

Btw, an online store, I saw, had this item at set to be in stock in month of October. Though, this item can be pre-ordered as well.
