EF-18AM with TAURUS

This was my second try with aircraft in in-flight-dirty conconfiguration. I chose the Kinetic F/A-18A+/CF-188 kit to complete my F-14 to F/A-18 projects. Modifications focused mainly on the landing gears and a supporting tube inside the rear fuselage. The details of main gear legs provided by the kit was poor, so I replaced the main undercarriages with Hasegawa ones (in fact they were from an F/A-18F kit along with the main and nose wheels). I chosed Ala 15 scheme as to avoid painting the false canopy under the nose section. I grabbed a pair of TAURUS KEPD 350 cruise missiles and a pair of IRIS-T missiles to complete the loadout. (The missiles came from my Revell Eurofighter kit)

This photo was taken by Zafer Buna at 2016 in Konya, Turkey, showing the absence of its roundel over its left wing. So did my model.
