Hi, I’m Tony Hodun, and this is one of five tables of Hasegawa 1/48 kit listings I’ve developed to aid you as a modeler or collector in finding the right kit to build the version you want, to fill the gaps in your collection, or to find the parts you need.  This page covers Jet Aircraft and Helicopters, Part 1, and covers the most modern US fighter types and also the F-4 Phantom II.  See the U.S./British WW II Aircraft Page for a more complete explanation of these tables.  If you have input, please contact me at hodunmisinec@cinci.rr.com .  Enjoy, and happy modeling/collecting!

 

Note:  These tables are based on the actual parts in the kit, not the instructions sheets!  Hasegawa sometimes includes older instructions in newer kit boxings, but newer revisions of parts trees, so the two don’t always match! 

Note: The starred tree letters (e.g. D*) are my own way of differentiating between trees where Hasegawa re-uses the same letter for two different sets of parts, modifies or updates parts, or adds/deletes an optional part; the star will not be found on the actual parts tree.  The lower case tree letters (e.g., the different A-4 or F-104 fuselage trees) typically have an extra tab with the subletter on the parts tree.

 

I want to especially thank David W. Aungst for his awesome contributions, as he willingly took the time to provide a huge amount of the data below, including much of the original parts tree information.  He paved the way for me and for others to build on this table, so thank him if you were helped by this table.

 

Another huge contributor I want to especially thank is Greg Feiser; his web pages on the F-16 include detailed information on the F-16 Fighting Falcon and on scale models in every scale, and his Hasegawa 1/48 pages provided much additional information for the improved F-16 kits section of my tables!  You can also use his notes to modify and correct these kits to build more accurate F-16 versions. Check out his site at:  http://www.habu2.net/vipers

 

My thanks to my repeat contributors James Arguello, Christian Blachford, Stefan Buysse, Jason Cheah, Jim Dick, Julien Dixon, Björn Dol, Mike Franklin, Carsten Götze, John Macklin, Andy Mullen, Ken Pawlowski, Rafael Rodriguez, Greg Scoumis, Marko Trnski, Mike Vorrasi, Martin van Wyk, and Ron Young, and also to Juan Ansari, Jose Barata, Andreas Beck, Jim Bonanni, Neils Christian Boman, Thomas Brown, Hans Datema, Fernando Jose Diaz de Sousa, Art Johnsons, Chris Kerns, Ray Lloyd, Marc de Niverville, Jim Obermeyer, Bosse Persson, Ray (no last name provided), Rafael Rodriguez, Kevin Seniuk, John Smith, Kevin Smythers, Dan Suria, Joe Taylor, and Woody Yeung for their helpful input!

 

NOTE: August 2006 - The first two sections of these tables is still under major reconstruction.  I have uncovered a great deal more complexity in the F-14 and F-4 kit families.  I need a lot of help on some of the older kits that were tabulated before the newer information came to light.

 

Bold typeface in the Table of Kit Boxings in this section only means the kit is newly entered in the table, or the parts tree numbers for older entries have been confirmed.  Conversely, bold typeface in the Parts Tree Descriptions are the parts trees that still need to be defined/confirmed

Some notes on the parts trees:

 

85 of the parts on F and G are identical, only parts F1-F6 and G1-G6 differ.

 

The D and E trees are unique in that they can be produced in multiple arrangements. Seven arrangements have been confirmed to date.  Note that later parts have often been installed on earlier Tomcat airframes, so if you want to build a specific Tomcat at a certain date, use your references and then use the table to find the kit you need, or you can sometimes hunt down extra parts left over from another person’s completed build.

 

F-14As:

07018, 07019, 07069, 51513, and 51582 are similar and build any F-14A from BuNo 159421 through 162711 with later tails. Only early issues of 07018 and 07019 come with the original fuselage tooling.  Need help confirming which versions of parts trees are included in 07069 and 51582.   

09388 is based on 07018/07019 but comes with the earlier tails.

09577 is based on 07018/07019 but comes with the later forward gun gas vent panel.  09516 is similar to 09577 but also includes late intake chine leading edges and engine rings, GE engined aft fuselage side extensions (not used), later gun gas extraction vent panel, and AAM launch rails and a pylon adapter. 51622 is similar to 09577, but only has late intake chine leading edges and engine rings, and includes whitemetal bomb shackles and two of tree A from Weapons Set A (X48-1) which provide 500/1000/2000 lb “dumb” bombs. 

07020 is the only kit that builds an earlier Block F-14A as built (prior to BuNo 159421, except for the first 12 pre-production aircraft), D* tree includes earliest beaver tail and gun gas purge vents, early instrument panels, and early vertical tails. 

09329 is similar to the 07018/07019 etc. family, also includes resin LANTIRN pod and BOL missile rails, white metal bomb shackles, and four of tree B from Weapons Set B (X48-2), which provide LGBs. Need help confirming which versions of parts trees are included in 09329.

 

F-14A+/B (the A+ was later redesignated B):

07023 and 51508 are identical, and include GE engine exhausts and other parts to build the F-14A Plus only. 09502 is similar and builds the F-14B.  09639 is similar to 09502 and also includes a pair of BOL rails and an AN/AAQ-14 pylon.  Need help confirming which versions of parts trees are included in 07023 and 51508. 

 

F-14D:

07212 comes with the necessary parts to build the later F-14D and will also build an F-14A+/B. Similar 09374 also includes two BOL launch rails.  Similar 09703 also includes BOL launch rails and a pylon for a LANTIRN pod.  51544 is based on 07023/51508 with the addition of F-14D parts, so can also build an F-14A+/F-14B or F-14D.  09309 is based on 51544 with white metal bomb shackles and two of tree A from Weapons Set A (X48-1) which provide 500/1000/2000 lb “dumb” bombs.  51512 is similar (but not identical) to 07023/51508, it does only the prototype “Super Tomcat”, has both types of intake chine leading edges but only the early gun-gas purge vents, and includes an instrumentation boom for the nose.  Need help confirming which versions of parts trees are included in 51544.

 

NEED INFO: Complete kits 07080, 07085, 09335, 09357, 09677, 09683, 09687, 09691, 09697, 09719, 09757.

Need some parts trees 07023, 07069, 09329, 51508, 51544, 51582.
