I sub to your channel can i have one
Wow wish i could afford a 1/18
F-16! When i was young i saw two of them flying very low, i saw the pilot so i saluted, the pair of f-16s came back and the left one turned upside down abd waved his wings to me! ❤
I just received a message from saying I won a prize? On a comment I wrote a year ago saying I need to message on telegram. Is this for real or scamm
@@j-punisher9951 that was definitely not me. Thank you for letting me know.
@@j-punisher9951 ?o
I don't understand why I find it so enjoyable watching a grown man with his hat the wrong way round assembling a toy plane..
Haha thanks for watching : )
Possibly cuz you are a simpleton?
hahaha.......good hobby
There will be always a child on us.
@@terrenceescarda8951 on?
I wonder if all of the molds are still intact, hiding out in some warehouse, waiting for someone to purchase the rights? These were so detailed and cool!
I never even heard of these before this video!
I hope so! Someone needs to make these again.
All I played with was military toys as a kid, and man if I had this then I would probably be sleeping with it every night. Today I would most likely display this beauty on my shelf or something and play with it when no one was looking =P PewPew for the kid inside all of us.
I wish I had this
This definitely brings the kid out in me. I'd love to have one of these. They seem to be a lot easier to assemble than the ones when I was young!
Man, you got my hopes up BBI and 21st century was spooling up again. The F 18 is a great kit.
Ahh I wish they were! Maybe we can get someone to start 1:18 scale models again! I’m in talks with people :)
9:44 The term you’re looking for is Vertical Stabilizors/Vertical Tail. The Rudder is the moving surface on the stabs. The horizontal stabilizers you referred to are actually fully moving as a surface and are called the elevators in this case, creating pitching moments on the aircraft. Sometimes they do double duty and also control roll moment, and in this case would be called elevons (a portmanteau of elevator and aileron). The outer moving surface on the wing is called an aileron and the inner moving surfaces are the flaps. Hope that helps!
Great info! Thank you and thanks for watching!
a Bit of correction, it's called a stabilator, you are correct that it controls pitch and roll, also the Flaps will react with the Alrons and stabilator for increased maneuverability, in Speedbrake mode, the Flaps, Alorons, stabs,Rudders and Speed brakes will all deploy to slow that bird down. just some info.....Just subbed, great channel P.S. Nose landing gear doors are wrong, and it's a pylon not hard point Fly Navy!!!!
Actually you're wrong. The elevators that you call are actually called Stabilators or as we call in the Navy "stabs". The difference between and elevator and a stabilator is that amount of flight surfaces that actually move. An elevator has a portion of the wing that is fixed while the trailing moves up and down. A stabilator has the entire wing move up and down.
The gunsight as he calls it is called HUD (heads up display). The cockpit flight controls are very inaccurate but thats to be expected. I don't know why the engine fans are near the back of exhaust nozzles rather in the front near the intakes! And those nose doors are definitely inaccurate. And It might just he me but the landing gear looks skinny compared to how beefy and large the real landing gear is.
Really cool. Would love one, coming from DCS. The only thing that bugs me is the turbofans at the engine exhausts.... that's not how it is in real life. Those fans represent the intake rather, which you would hardly ever see anyway, unless you stuck your head inside the intake vents.
The 1/18th F-18 hornets are very cool I had 3 of them before I sold them years ago. Black Vampire. Blue Angel . Red Devils versions . Trying to buy one these days is quite expensive some are selling for $800 TO $1000 . If you have one these hold onto it and do not open it , it will only increase in value as the years pass by . The jets are gorgeous , They also made 1/18 f-16 Falcons too also very expensive and hard to come by these days .
I agree! I want those other versions too. I also have an F-16 new in box (Limited Edition) that I will be unboxing and reviewing as well. Thanks for watching! 🙏
MVR are u sure if u can post the f16 and f18 plz.
I always wanted these types of toys, and elite force does not make the things they used to, and 21st century is out of buisness. I wish I got one in the earlier years. I like your videos and good job, man.
21st Century Toys had the best stuff. My son had the P51D and BF109 when he was little. Only saw them at Toys R Us back then. We accidently left them in the basement in our last move. The F-14 looked really good. He also had a bunch of different WW2 army guys. He had jeeps and motorcycles and a German machinegun team.
I agree! I wish 21st Century Toys, Elite Force, Jsi/Merit and all the other 1:18 model plane companies we’re still doing these! Thank you for watching! : )
There are some great deals these days on the Hobby Boss 1/18 scale aircraft models that you have to glue together. The 1/18 scale Huey helicopter is only $82, The Harrier jet is only $109 and the F-86 is only $76, I noticed the price also dropped on the Tamiya 1/16 scale Kubelwagen for $86, It used to be as high as $143, I just ordered the F-86
What you call the rudder as a whole really is the vertical stabilizer and the flap that moves side to side is the rudder.
If possible, will you be able to review a f-15?. And another extraordinary video. I see this channel going high
And soon enough we’re gonna need that p-51
Thank you for saying that and watching! Unfortunately they did not make a 1:18 scale F-15. I might review a smaller scale though in the future. : )
I was in VFA-86 and worked on the FA-18C for 7 yrs!!!
Iqysqusuq😊ywywysyayqh
So cool to see your channel grow. Thanks for all you do!
Thank you! Its because of you guys! My viewers. I really appreciate you watching 🙏😁
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews where we can but it ?
the amount of detail is just amazing
Saw the aircraft carrier vid, sick collection, so had to subscribe. loving the content so far
Thank you! Appreciate you watching. 👍💯
Awesome no more wood or carpet floors. Nice to see you get a come up. Love your channel. Proving we're all kids at heart... The toys just got better. AIM HIGH!!! TO THE WILD BLUE YONDER....
Thank you and thanks for watching! I really appreciate it! : )
I really like your videos and I will support you all the way.
Thank you! I really appreciate it! : )
I would love this in the Top Gun Maverick color scheme 👍🏼
Rudders are the moving part of the vertical stabilator or vert stab for short 😊
Another outstanding video and presentation. Time to heat up popcorn machine and sit back and enjoy the show.
yes
Thank you for that! I really appreciate you watching : )
Shifts are CRUCIAL on deck. It is PERFECTLY normal to have two pilots for one, one-seater. Plus, flying all the time takes a toll. It’s good to have someone to take over, after a long flight!
Wow nice f18
🤘
I was in VFA82 from 93-96, 86 was our sister squadron i never seen that paint scheme it must have been during Iraq but i do like it.
OMG the box is huge and the finished model I actually think you could catapult launch off carrier. On the F-18, you have vertical fins, with moveable rudders turned inwards to facilitate lift over the stabilizers at launch. The F18 is so versatile on weapons variation you could have Mark 80'S, but considering the era, possibly JDAMS. Joint Direct Attack Munition. MK 80 is just an iron bomb , JDAM can be turned into a guided bomb based on mission. In all probability the center tank, would be an ECM POD, Electronic Counter Measures.
The cockpit is nicely detailed, especially ejection seat. And what a bonus surprise, two pilots.
In addition to being a limited edition, this model is a version of what is known as a Legacy Model. All combat F-18's are now SUPER HORNETS LEGACY MODELS, will be the aircraft used at Top Gun School.
Your new video format is great, really highlights you and the kit. I always find it amazing that companies that built such great models long ago went out of business
P.S. not sure I mentioned this on the Zero, the original aircraft were built in the mid to late 30s, they bought their engines from Pratt and Whitney so some if the zeros attacking Pearl Harbor were powered by American engines. The Japanese reversed engineered them for balance if war.
I keep saying " this is the best kit yet" but seem to have to change that every new video. Good luck on future plans, I'm standing by to stand by for the next one. In the interim I'd love to find an Indiana Jones type of warehouse stocked with this puppies
Such good info! Thank you and thanks for always watching my video! 🙏 : )
And yes… I would love to find an Indiana Jones type warehouse too! Haha running out of space!!!
You`re one example for best of the BEST ! THANK YOU !!! TOP Review 🌠🏆
That's a cool model with a lot of details
Another badass vid man I am super glad I found you because there are very little to no you tubers that cover this stuff so amazing job bro
Good to hear, thank you and thanks for watching! I appreciate it man! 🙏
Wow website F-16 is my favorite friend and I love it the blue paint job where is wild my eyes
Damn...looks like the right size to pair with my GI Joe stuff I had as a kid! Very nice!
The rudder is also called the vertical stabiliser
🤘
That's a nice plane. Glad to see your channels doing well.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Dang man you turned real pro with the film setup
Thank you! And thanks for watching my videos! :)
As if this isnt the most amazing thing ever. Even if youre not even really into models and stuff, this would probably get you into models and stuff. This thing is so good. I like the size of it. The smaller models are cool, but this gives off like an old GI Joe toy type feel. Is there a lot around in this type of scale, this one is a limited addition, but are there other models around in this scale, in this type of designed format?
Stunning model
I think they could have done more with the cockpit but looks great over all!
I just found your video and enjoyed it. As someone who served in a F-18A Squadron way back in the 1980’s, this brings back memories. My only problem with this model is it’s a Navy Squadron and not a Marine Corps Squadron. (JK) My question is what’s the Buno Number of this aircraft model When I was in 1619xx were real old. My Squadron ( VMFA-115) flew 162453 - 162464 (yes they were brand new from the factory when we picked them up) until 1988. When I got out in 1989 they were building 1631xx’s….
Nice addition to your collection. I have the limmited RAAF 75 Sqd and the Blue Dragon version's as well. I would suggest to you that you get a suppourt stand for this Bird as they are Notorious for collapsing the Undercarriage due to it's size and wieght. Love the new format.Well Done.
Thank you and thanks for watching my videos! 😁
I need to start searching TH-cam before bed. There's is another thing to sink my money into.
I like the new name and the planes that you review and I like the new set up so glad to see you channel growing and I hope that soon you will get to 1 million subscribers. Good luck
Thank you! I appreciate it! I hope so too 😂🙏
Your military vehicle models are so cool. I can't wait for your future videos. Love your limited edition F-18.
Thank you and thanks for watching my videos! :)
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews you're welcome
I had forgotten that Blue Box toys took over when 21st Century Disappeared. I hope JSI comes thru with the F-15 and Su 37 they showed of a few years ago.🙏🙏🙏🙏
The Elite Force (Bbi) models seem way more detailed than the 21st Century toys. Merit/Jsi is the best in my opinion for detail but they are fragile and dont come with pilots. That would be awesome if Merit did those planes!
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews I agree with you 100%.👍
One perfect bird! Thanks a lot agan! Keep up the awesome work champ!😁
I agree. Thank you!
Really awesome to see you growing
Thank you! I really appreciate you watching : )
I was smiling the whole time.
Love the sound of the snap.
Me too haha. Thanks for watching! : )
Oh man..I have that still..
Wow..Love that set...
It’s an awesome Jet. Thank you for watching! : )
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews glad I saw it...Glad I subscribed too...
Man ..I want to collect again hahahaha...
More power to you sir...
@@GuilePatrick I appreciate you subscribing! I have a lot more coming! F-16 (Limited Edition), Apache, FW-190, Sherman Tank, Sturmtiger Tank, Chinook and a lot of others! : )
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews wow..so many goodies..I'll looking forward to that and I'm pretty sure your review will be great...
Love the new review table keep up the good work dude 😀👍
Thank you! I really appreciate it and you watching : )
For the money this costs I would expect far higher detail in the cockpit, especially at 1/18 scale !!
That video quality is super good now
Thats a real nice pre-built. Just a beauty! Lucky man.
man, it is huge. I wonder if you could compare with any die cast car.
It is Huge! You should see the F-14 in 1:18 scale I reviewed (check my channel). It’s even bigger!! Thanks for watching : )
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews I will check it later
Great video 👍. Awesome scale model.
That's IS INSANELY WILD Lookn F-18!! .WOW.!🤯🤯😍
Hello! I am watching from Japan.
I'm not good at listening to English, so I'd like to ask you a question.
Where did you buy this?
If you don't mind, can you tell me how much you paid for it?
Thanks for watching from Japan! I appreciate it 😁. The prices vary because the company went out of business. Check ebay.
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews Thank you! I'll look for it as soon as I can.
That thing is gorgeous!
That is one beautiful model, but I don't know where I would keep it, lol.
I agree, still trying to find a place haha. I have sooo many now and they keep growing.
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews Your wife must love you a lot, lol
@@olentangy74 😂
Congrats on the new set up! Great video! Keep the great work!
Thank you, I appreciate you watching! 🙏
I've loved your videos since the 1st time I watched one Keep up the good grind
Awesome, thanks for sticking with my channel and videos! I appreciate you 🙏
Has Ward Carroll offered any input? I’d love to see Ward use this as his training aid. 😬
What you are calling rudders, are actually the vertical stabilizers in which the rudder connects to the trailing edge of each vertical stab.!
Good info! Thank you and thanks for watching! 💯
@John Conner Hey bud, thanks for the thoughts but I have a job, I build warbirds for a living but thanks for the heads up!
@John Conner all good man!
Good channel logo! Appreciate waht you done👍👍
Thank you! 🙏 I appreciate you watching :)
Mantap bos vidionya pesawat Militer aku paling senang nonton video pesawat terbang komersial atau Militer aku penggemar pesawat dari Bali Indonesia
Gorgeous plane. I wish I could have a whole crap load of them in that scale
Nice model. Period correct loadout also. I think they really follow their photo references about this particular airframe.
Hey u should look for that pearl harbor edition a6m Zero you talked about in your zero review
I am looking to get one. Thanks for watching. : )
Great job !!! Congratulations !!!!
I like your videos so much that i got a ww2 bomber thats a b-17 and its so cool and God bless you man 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you! Thanks for watching and beware you will get addicted haha
Good joke man i got it
You're on track to becoming a successful TH-camr! Keep up the awesome work!
Thank you! 😁
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! A TOTALLY AWSOME MODEL BUILD. AND A TOTALLY AWSOME VIDEO!!! THANKS FOR SHARING. I LEARNED A LOT.
I recently stumbled across your videos and now I'm hooked those model aircraft look amazing and gave me the inspiration to try and source them here in the UK 🇬🇧 but no chance can't find them anywhere guess ill keep looking around thank you for another fantastic video and a big hello from me in the UK
Thank you for watching! Bummer you cant find them there. I have seen some pop up every now and then in the UK so keep looking :)
Hay I’m English too and I can’t seem to find any either, glad it’s not just me
@@CaptSlow127 nope not just you buddy I did find one this morning but was outbid at last minute
@@MrJoffster that’s annoying, hope you find another one.
Again, congrats, I was a little disappointed when I got mine new, but was still a very nice model
Thank you! I appreciate you watching! : )
I used to do the landing gear for the F18, we haven't done this plane in probably 10 years... but we still do everything else... LOL
Rudder: Vertical Stabilizer, the rudder is the control surface
Horizontal Stabilizer: Elevator, it isnt like the vertical stabilizer so its just elevator
Awesome video, my aircraft only came with 1 pilot, regardless it’s a nice plane, now all you need it’s the BBI - F16 fighting Falcon “ Operation Iraqi freedom” that’s a cool 1 to get .
I have that F-16 (Limited Edition) ready to review. It’s in the line up. I have a few more to review first before I get to it. I guess I got lucky with the pilot haha. Thank you and thanks for watching! : )
Thank you for a creating a Chanel dedicated to the 1/18 scale collector , and keep up the good videos and work ,
And I can’t wait to see the review of the F-16.
F-18hornet is my favourite warplane
Whoa. This looks great. Nice video!
Thank you and thanks for watching! : )
This one is absolutely fab!
I agree! I love this plane. Thanks for watching my videos! : )
Awesome plane and great camera set up good job man
The f-18 hornet is so cool and you do a good job
and that might be like 40 dollars I think idk
I agree! Thank you and thanks for watching :)
So I was looking at the Idea of making a Roman War Galley and a Greek War Galley in 1/18 scale and I come up to where they would be almost 4 feet in length.
Hello, I enjoy watching your videos. I actually have the M1 Abrams tank, the F-18 and the F-16. I wish JSI, Elite Force, or one of those companies would make a 1:18 scale F-15E Strike Eagle
Ich wünsche das ich das Modell kriege
When will these be made again? As a Navy Veteran I would love to have one of these. I worked around Super Hornets, Baby Hornets, EA 6 B prowler, Sh-60 SeaHawk, etc OIF OIF Veteran! Gooooo Navy! ⚓️
I appreciate your service! I hope someone starts making them again soon. I really think they would sell!
I also think you're very lucky. I wish I could work around those
Man... I want one of these... or four!.. I appreciate that you called the parts by their correct names... a lot of guys would have called the stabilizers "rear wings" haha... subscribed buddy... yeah... I need these things for some reason... even though I don't have any kids... I'll get them just in case one day I do... that'll be my excuse haha
I hope one day Elite Force will come out with a Super hornet or an F-15C Eagle.
You bet imma repaint it and give it the "Three Strikes" aircraft paint scheme from Ace Combat 7 or even Pixy from a previous Ace Combat game
Wow😮 this model is huge.
From Japan. your channel so cool !!
Very cool. I like it a lot. Landing gear is not that inaccurate. I thought it looked pretty good. When you mention inoperable ailerons, you actually grab the 11 first. Does the launch bar (forward of the nose landing gear) always just hang loose? I noticed it in the down to engage the catapult configuration and in an impossible 12 o'clock position. Normal position is about 2 O'clock to the aircraft.
hello from AUSTRALIA from [ SQDN LDR ADAMS i love that aircraft i fly an F-18 SUPER HORNET with the R A A F how much did that model cost you and do they make 1 in 2 tone gray
Thank you for watching! Thats awesome, I would love to fly an F-18 Super Hornet! Is it fun? The prices vary because the company went out of business. Check ebay but prepare for sticker shock 😬.
Wow i can believe how much your channel grew,
btw i love your videos i have been a subscriber for a long time keep up the good work
And the ‘‘rudder’’ other name is a vertical stabilizer
Favorite new channel
Thankyou for what you done for us
Thank you for watching! I am super grateful of the channel growth. I appreciate you watching! :) thanks for the info!
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews your welcome
@@MilitaryVehicleReviews oh yea what day do you post your videos
Good review, and the model looks good
Nice video bro!i am fan from Malaysia!
I wish I had as much money as this guy has
I love the new channel name
Thank you! I appreciate it : )
Really cool looking plane!!
awesome content bro, love the detail on this Hornet. +1 sub
I'm very late to the party but I have a modest collection of 18th scale planes (5) that I've collected 20 years ago as well as 300 18th cars. Is your whole focus on warbirds? Super job! thanks for sharing.
Mine came with just one pilot.
I guess I got lucky! Thanks for watching 😁
