Any ideas for 4 shot zuni rockets in 1:32 scale?

No one that I know of makes a LAU-10 in 1/32 scale. It wouldn't be too hard to scratch build. All you would have to do is get the dimensions, and there are several in 1/48 scale that you could get that from. As for the A-10 using rockets, I have not seen any loaded on them operationally. The choice of weapons for the A-10 is the AGM-65 Maverick, Mk-20 Rockeye. SUU-30/64/65 Cluster bomb units (CBU) and an ECM pod. At times they also carry MK-82 LDGP or HDGP.

Yes. The A-10 has used 2.75 inch marking rockets.

Right on, Sled nice site! Thanks!

Happy to have helped

Try www.af.mil. Check the photo tab then go to the gallery. Lots of photos of different aircraft. I also use google and ask jeeves search engines

Good Luck

Last time I checked the zuni was the 5 in rocket, not the 2.75 in FFAR or CRV7. Are they still in use? We stopped using the zuni in the rnzaf years ago (at least 15). As for Launchers, they would be fairly easy to scratch build if you had the dimensions, a big tube, a bulk head at each end with 4 holes, a bit of a raised panel line around each end and some lugs, pretty much all there would be to it. As for Zunis, an AIM9 is the same dia (they originally had the same motor back in the 50s) the heads would be best made on a lath, out of rod, but you could probably make them using a motor tool and a file. The zuni heads protude from the front of the launcher.

The pics in the photo above are not zunis, unless the USAF also calls the 2.75 in rocket the zuni.

I think the 2.75in rocket was orininally called the "Mighty Mouse".
Could be wrong though.

I stand corrected.
