Since my last comment I found the Blue Angels boarding ladder container in sprue V found in all Hasegawa TA-4 kits and the 'hot dog' antenna in sprue S of the A-4M kit(s). All items provided by this Steel Beach set are found to be direct copies of the Hasegawa parts so not worth any of your hard earned money unless you don't own an extra set of intakes from an A-4M, "hot dog"antenna from same kit or a TA-4 kit that has part V39 left-over for a Blue Angels version. For the intended use of this Steel Beach set there is NO reason to buy this, buy Phase Hangar Resin 48042 for the correct intakes and 'hot dog' antenna. If you need the Blue Angel boarding ladder container buy any Hasegawa TA-4 Skyhawk kit or contact me as I might have a spare or two available. And feel free to buy my copy of this Steel Beach set.

Intakes from this set are EXACTLY the same size as provided in the Hasegawa E/F kits. For a Super Fox they should be the same size as the A-4M, so bigger. Exhaust provided is pointless since the Hasegawa kit provides both versions on sprue D, common to all Hasegawa Skyhawk kits. So the 'hot dog' antenna and the Blue Angel boarding ladder container are the only items that are worth using from this set.
