1/144 Beechcraft T-6A/B TEXAN II Trainer - Foxone


1/144 Beechcraft T-6A/B TEXAN II Trainer - Foxone
The lastest releases from Foxone are a flight of T-6A Texan II Trainers,  the main basic pilot trainer for the US, Beechcraft are keen to highlight the additional work they have put into this design in order to improve on the original PC-9 so much so they consider it a distinct aircraft in its own right.... T-6 is not a Pilatus PC-9   (PDF Link ) This aircraft is also used by a number of other air forces, so should present some opportunity for other schemes. 

 Further information on the Beechcraft T-6 Texan II here( wiki )

 The Foxone kit is available in 3 differentkits, each with 2 or 3 set of decals for you to configure your chosen aircraft. As with most Foxone kits, some previous experience and skill is recommended.

 Outside of Japan, these items are availble from Radjan's Foxone Page, or HLJ

Cool...after T-2 Buckeye..another trainer plane.. Foxone is right filling the gaps..
and looks this kit have less small parts and will be easier to build
the versions are colorfull too
We can have a T-27 Tucano?(FAB,RAF,french?)
or T-38 Talon or T-34 turbo mentor..
Even the newest T-birds like Yak-130, T-50(Korea),or M346 they are nice and small planes..

Can we have the plain PC-9 version. Just leave off the front canopy frame and delete some of the strakes. The RAAF fly some cool looking ones in their FAC trainers!
