The Intruder is one of my favorite aircraft...I've been itching to build the A-6A since it came out, but the absence of any aftermarket GRU-5 seats has been holding me back. Not an issue with the A-6E, since Aires has a nice set of GRU-EA7 bangseats. So off to the races for an Operation Desert Storm 'truder.
The kit itself is impressive. And it looks a lot more imposing at first than it really is, since fully four of the sprues are dedicated to ordnance.
Initial test-fit of some main components.
Aftermarket is going to be pretty light. Aires seats and a Fightertown decal sheet. I'm not sure which exact Intruder I'm going to do yet, but I've got a little while to sort it.
