Here is an old sheet from which I've never seen anyone build a model. This is for C-121s and since a large APS-20 lower radome is needed, you have to dig up the old Heller kit that has the early warning version.

First up is an EC-121 from VW-2. This one is in overall unpainted metal with the upper radome, fuselage center section and nose area in light gull grey.

The other is from VXN-8  as flown in Vietnam during 1966 as a radio relay station. This one has only the lower radome and has no wing tip pods. Lower surface is Light gull grey and the grey bands on the decal sheet are for the fuselage. 

Insignia will have to come from another source as none are supplied.
