Flying Leathernecks FL172-2001 1/72 F/A-18C/D Pylons 'Late' (SUU-63C/A wing pylons and SUU-62C/A centerline pylon)

Set FL172-2001 contains four correct SUU-63C/A wing pylons and one correct SUU-62C/A centerline pylon for the F/A-18A++, C and D.

These pylons are correct for F/A-18C and D aircraft with BuNo's 163985 thru 165532 and aircraft upgraded to F/A-18A++ standard. The F/A-18A++ can be easily identified by the installation of the SJU-17 NACES ejection seat, IFF antenna on the nose, GPS dome and swept back upper and lower UHF/VHF antenna, while the airframe still retains its original F/A-18A antenna suite.

They not only correct the shape of the kit pylons, they provide details unmatched by the kit supplied parts. All pylons are 3D printed and require little clean up to remove the print support nibs.
