1/72 Italeri MC-130E Hercules Combat Talon I SRX1

Hajo Lippke
Nice project! What does that "SRX1" mean?

Tony Stark
Hajo Lippke SRX1 is my abbreviation of the 7th Special Operations Squadron's main callsign that we hear alot "Strix"

Hajo Lippke
Ah, great to know that! I´m looking forward to see this model on the bench!

Tony Stark
You'll have to check back mid to late 2024 as I need to buy the Zvezda AC-130J Ghostrider as I'm planning on building both together as Strix 1 and Strix 2!

Hajo Lippke
Actually I have similar plans (a Zvesda C-130H waiting to be converted into a MC-130E and also want to build a AC-130J).

Tony Stark
I was actually thinking of doing that myself then having the remaining Italeri Herc as the AC-130J but I have already built an Italeri Royal Air Force C-130K and to be honest I thaught personally the Italeri looks and feels as close to the Hercs that I've always known and loved so it would be pointless for me to do it, it'd just make more work for no reason!
