Dipping my toe into modern air combat games… Who makes 1/300-ish aircraft models? I'm thinking along the lines of earlier aircraft such as: MiG-15, F-84, F9F maybe some IL-2, AD-4 perhaps even a B-29 Not looking to spend a lot. At least not at first. I could go with 1/144 as well. Thanks in advance for any info you may have to share.

Try MSD – They make the Luftwaffe 1946 line msdgames.com/LUFTWAFFE-1946 They have the B-29 but they also have the B-35 and B-49 flying wings and many of the never builds (aircraft that didn't go into production or even past the concept stage) |

I-94enterprises carries MSD,SCotia, GHQ and CinC. They are the Manufacturer of Raiden. Good people to deal with |

Thanks! Checking out MSD right now, looks like I can get a start at a reasonable price. Small, simple games at first and see how it goes from there. |

I would also get the Check Your 6 Jet Age Korean War scenario book. Lots of great scenarios. I94 enterprises has it. i-94enterprises.com |

Have ordered from I94 and one of their people has painted many of my command stands (ancients). They also have a nice selection of painted aircraft at the conventions that they attend. Sometimes I94 is out of some of the aircraft that they carry. |

Another vote for I-94 and Raiden. Scotia's Collectaire range has a lot of interesting modern air miniatures. Shapeways features a number of artists that offer a variety of 1/300 3D printed planes. Don't forget Heroics and Ros. |
