Gloria Model AIM-174B

The missiles are released in 2 pcs per box. 2 warheads per each missile. 

The 2 types of warheads are of minor difference: access panels. I bought two sets of this product 

 

Test fit with type 1 warhead 

 

 

 

Putty is needed to fill the gap between warhead and the rear part. Interesting comparison against Russian R-33 and R-40TD long range AAMs 

 

Two missiles with Type-1 warhead, two with Type-2  

Test fit on a spare F/A-18F airframe 

 

Airbrushing GSI Mr.Color C308 grey and C107 white after a coat of Mr. Prime Surfacer 

 

The decals react to water quickly and conform to missile surface nicely. They don't need much cure. 

 

 

Attached to F/A-18F after a little wash and a coat of semi gloss transparent coat. 

 

Finished!
