discussion Looking For Weapons Fitting Help

[Guest]

Hello

I am working on a U.S Navy Ship that I am unable to find the MK 15 Phalanx CIWS system for in 1/144. I would even be ready to make it, if I could find detailed plans on the weapons system.

Any help would be Greatly Appreciated.

Thanks, George

Hello Jure

Might be easier to get another kit possibly cheaper one Airfix etc that has one in and use one from there

Sorry I'm not much help

George, Your not going to find "detailed" plans of this thing, It's still widely used on ships.

Your best bet will be scratch build it from photos.

Maybe the guy's on the steel navy site could help?SteelNavy (formerly Warship): The Web's Best Ship Modeling Site

Hi Mr. Morris

Thanks for the links. I went through them and all I could find was in set in 1/350. Way to small to help me with detail etc. I think if I coughed I`d blow it off the bench. I was hoping for something in the scale I need, 1/144 OR near to it.

I tried and sent an email to Lee of Scale ShipYard. Still waiting for his reply.

Thanks again and Anymore links are welcomed.

Jure, George
