Im working on a SEAC thunderbolt for the P-47 SIG build. Im using the old hasegawa 1/72 kit and it comes with some usable US 500lb bombs but Im curious if there are some decent affordable and appropriate British bombs available in 1/72. I may end up using the US bombs anyway but would like the extra detail if possible. Any thoughts on the topic is appreciated

I believe Pavla does a couple of sets of WWII RAF ordnance in 1/72. You'd have to adapt the underwing pylons as they were altered by the RAF to use british built weapons.

Thanks for the idea Stephen! I checked them out and they didn't have what I was looking for, they had more specialized ordnance which along with larger stuff is what im usually finding. Ill use the US ordnance if I have to, its just been a simple fun build.
