>>9386620Their new 1/72 modern U.S. fighters are quite good, I believe they have an F-15, an F-14, and an F-4 that are all quite well regarded.
>>9386835The most recent decent release was the Eduard rebox of the Hasegawa plastic IIRC, I built the Hasegawa one and was quite happy with it. Needs rivets, but the cockpit, air brakes, and wheel wells were quite good. I spent some time on it scratchbuilding extra detail onto the ejection seat but that was totally optional. (pic related)
