USS Nimitz, Med Cruise mid 70s.

Eduard PE-parts are nice, but a bit thick. Curves are hard to bend.

Fuel Tanks for the KA-6D

Jamming pods attached on the EA-6B

Vehicles for the flight deck, from BigBlueBoy, in the foreground, compared to the kit parts. Not cheap, but look terrific.

The aircraft are very impressive for 1/700 Alex. I assume that photo 51 is comparing the size of Nimitz to an early aircraft carrier at the same scale? If so, I'm curious to know what the other ship is, as I can't find this model in your albums.

I'll guess: IJN Hosho

Thanks Martin and Alex.
Your Hosho model is also very good Alex. I didn't know about this carrier and I've just spent some time reading about it on Wiki – very interesting.

I have to admit i cheated a bit. I recognized her as a japanese carrier. And there was only one in Alex'. Completed kits 🙂
