Hi guys.. I am interested in getting a 1/35 scale KIOWA, but all i can find is the Black Death, and the Warrior Thugs version.. I am just looking for a basic KIOWA.. Do they make the basic version in 1/35th, or is there a way of redoing them to look like the standard KIOWA.. Curious...

Revell made a 1/32 OH-58A/C Kiowa. It is long out of production, but comes up on ebay quite often. There is one there now:

It is a pretty descent kit, soft on exterior detail, interior is pretty good. Separate doors and left side fuselage cargo compartment door. Basic engine and transmission housing. Good fit. I have built a couple and highly recomend it.

Backdating a OH-58D to an A/C model would be quite a bit of work. You would have to reshape/rebuild the entire engine cowl are above the roofline. A lot of work. I would go with the Revell 1/32 model.

Don't forget to remove the drive-shaft cover and add the drive-shaft
