I think that is Monogram 1/48 scale; no other kits in 48th. except that.   More than a decade ago I got to chat with a PAF ground crewman and we "revelled" Laughing at the various shades of dark camouflage applied tp PAF T-28Ds and AT-28D-5s.  There was Olive drab of the dark gray variety, Olive drab of the dark dreen variety, flat black and...GLOSS BLACK! Laughing

Hi Dimasupil,

COUPMander Yoda is correct, the model is made by Monogram in 1/48 scale. The Builder is Ramrod, and he had to scratch build a new undercarriage/wheel wells, because the kit was originally a "toy", with retracting landing gears. Old tech na yung kit, made pa yata in the 1960's yung mold......

Sayang, wala pang new tooling of this kit in 1/48.

You can build this kit too in 1/72, T28D Trojan by Heller.

Regards,

WW

Reminds of the coup D'Etat since the late 80's.

I really like these kits. The T-28 was a great CAS aircraft. It's sad how the mis-informed media think it's WWII vintage only because of its nickname "Tora-Tora".

A tip on the T-28's dihedral:

51.5 inches is the height of the main wing root from the ground; while 81.5 inches is the height from the wing tip to the ground.
