SPA Modeler

Sorry Carlos I thought I'd commented on this - what an excellent looking model.

I wasn't aware of the Hawk, I'll have to go and google it.

Thanks Stuart. No worries about missing it last week. The HAWK is one of those missiles that served thru the second half of the Cold War for US forces. Had a decent combat record in the Middle East, but was never fired in combat by the US.

Very cool - I assume a SAM?

Yes. The Hawk was/is a low to medium altitude SAM. They are still in use today with many countries. I do believe that a lot of the former US stock has been sent to Ukraine.

Ah put to good use then. Sounds a bit like the Rapier system we had.

Yes, very smilie in role, but with more range and altitude capabilities.

Really liked this one,different and well done.

Thanks Tony. Yes, it certainly is a different one just being a launch trailer with the missiles and none of the rest of the associated firing battery equipment.
