Grumman US-2C Tracker 1/48 Kinetic "I Couldn’t Find This Kit… So I Built It "

I Couldn’t Find This Kit… So I Built It | Grumman US-2C Tracker 1/48 In this video, I build a Grumman US-2C Tracker in 1/48 scale using the Kinetic S-2E Tracker kit as the starting point. I couldn’t find a kit of this specific US-2C version, so I decided to build the conversion myself using photographs of the real aircraft as reference. This project required much more than simply assembling the kit. The wings were modified, the nose was extended, unnecessary equipment and weapons were removed, and many missing details were scratch-built. I also added extra cockpit details, rebuilt the instrument panel, detailed the landing gear bays and engines, created navigation and landing lights with UV resin, and added rivets, wiring, chipping, weathering and exhaust stains. Finally, the finished Tracker was placed on a scratch-built aircraft carrier deck with a tow tractor to complete the display. This was definitely one of my most challenging builds, but also one of the most enjoyable. Thank you for watching. See you in the next project. Take care!
