I have the Hasegawa 1/48 F-14D in the VX-9 Vandy 1 box. I'm sure the parts are there to do it as an F-14B but I'm not sure what I have to switch out. Any 'Cat experts out there who would be willing to help me out? It would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Any thing you need to know sir you can find here

Michael you can't go wrong with Danny Coremans book: Uncovering the F-14 A/B/D Tomcat

Photos from all angles and covers the difference between early and late build F-14B's and any upgrades.

I'll check my Hasegawa F-14D against a Hasegawa F-14B boxing later and will get back to you.

Thanks guys! What Littorio is offering is what I actually need. I have some fairly decent references, what I'm wondering is if my Hasegawa 1/48 F-14D can be done as a B with the parts in the box (except the seat, I have resin for those).

Check Hasegawa instruction set from the F-14B kit

To see if you have all the necesary parts.

To me the most noticeable change is the designer under the nose

Thanks Alvaro, that did it! It looks like they changed the letter on tree F to G but the parts look like they're the same, so I'm set!
