This is the 1983 History Makers re-release of the TM-76a Mace missile, the MM-1 Teracruzer, and Translauncher. Bought the kit in the mid 80s after stumbling across articles about the Mace system in old issues of the IPMS quarterly. Missile end section converted to resemble a production unit rather than a test missile. Scribed panel lines and receptacles added, along with wing interior details, wing recess details. Interior details added to MM-1, front grill revised, headlight lenses and guards and air cleaner added. Added steering linkage, hoses, cables, and other underside details.
Translauncher received conduits, junction boxes, rear fenders, bogie details, hydraulic hoses,placards from Archer, and other details. Figures are modified from Airfix Multipose sets.
My late father trained and served on the Mace at Lowry AFB, CO, orlando afb, and Sembach AB (where i was born).
