U toku prošle godine pojavila se potpuno nova maketa aviona C130 u varijanti H. Odlična maketa. Pošto smo vec pisali kratak istorijat ovog aviona, a o njemu je puno toga napisano na netu, ja se ne bih zadržavao na tome već bih predstavio ono što je bitno za varijantu J.
Ono što je uočljivo kao razlika između ova dva podtipa je prvenstveno duzina trupa, J je duzi za skoro 5 m, i motori koji su na J varijanti su Rols Rojs, a na H su Alison. Shodno tome i velika je razlika u gondolama motora kao i u elisama. Varijanta J ima šestokrake elise, a H četvorokrake.
Maketa je pakovana u čvrstu kutiju sa lepim crtežom. Odlivena je u standardnoj sivoj plastici i sadrži 334 dela. Urađen je potpuno nov trup, i sada je dugacak 47.8 cm a H varijanta je 41.4 cm. Urađene su i potpuno nove gondole motora sa pripadajućim šestokrakim elisama. Time se u potpunosti zadovoljava izgled J varijante. Čisto odliveno bez viškova plastike.
Sastavnica je pregledna i čitka sa jasnim crtežima za postupke sastavljanja. Izuzetno bogat set nalepnica sa oznakama nacionalne pripadnosti, stensilima i walkway linijama. Sheme bojenja su date u koloru i predstavljaju pet različitih vazduhoplovstava, a to su SAD, Francuska, Italija, Australija i Velika Britanija.
Preporučili bismo ovu maketu za sve ljubitelje transportne i vojne avijacije, kao i klasičnih velikih aviona uopšte. Zahvaljujemo se Zvezdi na ustupljenoj maketi.
Sometime during last year, a completely new C130 model variant H appeared. Excellent model. Since we already wrote about the historical development of the airplane in that review, and also there is a lot about it written online, I would like introduce the important things in J variant.
The most noticeable things about these two variants is the difference in fuselage length, J is almost 5 meters longer, and also the engines are different: Rolls Royce in J variant, while Allison are in H variant. Therefore there is a big difference in the engine gondolas as well as with propellers. J variant has six-blade propellers, while H has four-blade ones.
The model is packed in solid box with nice box art on it. It is injected in standard grey styrene and there are 334 parts in total. A completely new fuselage is designed and it spans 47.8 cm in length, while the H one has 41.4 cm. Completely new engine gondolas are designed as well with corresponding six-bladed propellers. That completes the visual differences between two subtypes. The parts are clean without any flash.
Instructions are legible and easy to follow with clear drawings of the assembly steps. Very rich decal sheet with national markings, stencils and walkway lines is also present in the box. Paint instructions are in color and are given for five different air forces; US, French, Italian, Australian and Royal Air Force.
We would recommend this model to all fans of transport, military and classical large airframe aviation. We would like to thank Zvezda for this sample.
