Hi,
I've got the Seminar UH-1B kit and I want to build and perhaps cast copies of the TOW missle system used in VietNam ca. 1972. It consisted of two- three shot missle pods and sighting/ tracking equipment in the left- hand chin bubble.
Any info/ pics would be MOST HELPFUL !!!

Hello Carface,
Try this link:
http://www.vhfcn.org/.It is the Vietnam Helicopter Flightcrew network. It provides links to related sites that sometimes have interesting pictures. Your UH-1 version might be in there somewhere as well.
