This anti-aircraft guided missile system was in use on the US Navy frigates Charles F.Adams DDGs and Oliver Hazard Perry FFGs, and also on the California CGN cruisers.
The new L'Arsenal accessory set AC 350 141 contains two units.

Heh, I know there are a few builders in the What-if forum who'd love this.

Does the missile come molded-on or separate?

Thank you for your interest, Timmy.

Base, missile arm support and the missile itself are all molded separately and you can adjust the elevation and bearing.

OOOOOOOO!!!!!! :woo_hoo: :woo_hoo: :woo_hoo:

Now just mold the Mk-92 fire control "egg" and the OTO 3"/62 (smooth and low rcs shields?) and I'll be happier than a pig in you know what! :big_grin:

Do that and it just might force me to switch one of my long-term projects to 1/350.

Thank you for your interest.

Unfortunately neither the Mk-92 fire control "egg" nor the OTO 3"/62 are currently in the pipeline.

Great, Gilbert! I will be placing an order for sure. I see you have an SM-1 on there. Could you guys tool up a Harpoon, too?

Regardless, great job. It's another great product from L'Arsenal.

Thank you for your kind words.

Sorry, no Harpoon is currently planned but could be depending of interest level.
