Title pretty much says it all. Wonder if anyone knows a source for 1:1800 or 1:2400 ships for the Falklands War. Bonus if there's aircraft in roughly 1:900 also. I've tried Ghukek, wargaming3d and wargamevault without success.

QRF used to make these in 1/2400th in resin.

I don't know if they are still available for sale or not, since IIRC, QRF did, or was going to cease operations.

Hopefully, someone else picked them up and is selling them, if QRF no longer does.

QRF still makes Falkland War 1/2400 ships for both the British and the Argentinian navy in metal. They never made ships in resin

They also make some 1/1200 aircraft

Check thingiverse for the individual ships.

Check the user captain_ahab_62 on thingiverse. He's done just about all the aircraft anyone could ever need, plus some other stuff.

Good to know they are metal.

I thought they were originally released in resin.

I like metal better.

Thanks much all and especially Andrew Walters. The captain_ahab items are just what I'm looking for with regard to aircraft.

I ordered the complete British modern Falklands range from QRF and they are great! I use them with my board wargames. Only missing type from QRF is a type 22 frigate, this one i ordered from GHQ

I really need to order some of those, as well as the Argentine types too.

Just need to figure out how many of each type I need for the historical scenarios, and/or how few I can order of the more prevalent types to make do for most battles.
