    This video was so entertaining! The build was spectacular. Your wife's narration was so much fun! I loved how she put her little comments in, made it human. Great work please keep it up.

      Oh yeah, synchronicity is a word. I had to look it up because I wasn't sure. That part made me laugh. BRAVO!

    Excellent video,build and commentator however, one minor correction, The Skyraiders, also called Sandy - was such a good ground support aircraft, about 3/4 into the Vietnam War the military wanted more built. Unfortunately entering the war the plane was no longer being manufactured The military contacted the manufacture to build more. With the manufacturing shut down scaling up again would double the cost. The request for more was vetoed and we stretched the inventory as far as we could . A-6 was also good ground support with awesome bomb loads, however, the Skyraiders, being propeller aircraft could loiter over active areas for long periods of time. A-6 was also great ELINT, aircraft, based on land and flown by Marines. Super support because they didn't have to wait out on a carrier at Point Luck waiting for launch. Several pilots awarded MOH for rescues and support in Skyraiders/Sandy

    It's great to finally see someone did the venerable Revell Intruder justice. Great built. I see you listed the Rockeyes being from Eduard. What about the Snake eyes? Are they outsourced, too?

    • @buildinghistorymodels
      @buildinghistorymodels  ปีที่แล้ว

      The Snakeyes are from Reskit. I forgot to mention that in the video.

      @@buildinghistorymodels Are they bigger than the ones come with the kit? I always suspect the ones from the kid are Mk 81s (250 lb), not the regular Mk 82s (500 lb) that commnly carried by A-6s.

    • @buildinghistorymodels
      @buildinghistorymodels  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes they are significantly larger than the kit pieces

    Beautiful! Do you have a source for the wing folds kits 1/48 and 1/72?

    • @buildinghistorymodels
      @buildinghistorymodels  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I used a paragon design wing fold set, which unfortunately are no longer in production. Although sometimes you can still find them on ebay. I believe Wolfpack still makes a set in 48 and 72 scale

    Well I have to correct you on what the A6-E was really called, a yard dart, this is what it's called in the military, I know I was a jet engine mechanic on A6-E jets.
