Harrier GR.9 Arrives
at IWM Duxford
Recently, BAE Systems Harrier GR.9 ZD461 was transported
from RAF Cottesmore to IWM Duxford, where it will undergo
conservation work and a rebuild.
T
he acquisition of a second-generation Harrier
Airfield, Afghanistan, followed by deployment to
HMS Invincible in 2005. By May 2006, No.4 AC
Squadron was once again serving in Afghanistan.
This was followed by a tour of duty at Luqa, Malta
before returning to RAF Cottesmore in August
2007. From there the aircraft was transferred to
RAF Lossiemouth in September 2007 before being
upgraded to a GR9 under the Joint Maintenance
and Upgrade programme in 2008.
In January 2010, Harrier ZD461 was grounded
at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, having suffered
CAT.3 damage from brake fire during exercise
Red Flag 2010-2. In March 2010, it was returned
to RAF Cottesmore for repairs, where it remained
following the withdrawal of the Harrier fleet from
RAF service in December 2010.
More information may be found on the IWM
website www.iwm.org.uk
with Afghanistan theatre history is hugely
important to Imperial War Museums, enabling
them to communicate and interpret significant
aspects of contemporary conflict. No other aircraft
in the current IWM collection has Afghanistan
service history so Harrier ZD461 presents an
important addition to the IWM .
Harrier GR9 ZD461 was originally built as
a GR.5 model and was upgraded to a GR.7 in
1992. In 1999, the aircraft served with No.4 Army
Co-operation (AC) Squadron and moved with the
squadron from Germany to RAF Cottesmore in
Rutland, Great Britain.
During February and March 2003, the aircraft
was deployed with No.4 AC Squadron to Operation
Telic in Iraq. In August 2004, No.4 AC Squadron
was deployed to Operation Herrick, at Kandahar
Scale ModelWorld 2012
Revell Launches Scale 2012: the search
for ‘model of the year’ begins
S
cale ModelWorld, the UK’s premier modelling event and the
biggest public model show in the world, will be held on 10 & 11
November 2012. This year, the organisers have added another
hall to the show creating 33% more
space than in 2011. The new fourth hall at the Telford International
Centre, The Ludlow Suite, will be the new home to the IPMS (UK)
annual competition. The KitSwap will be moving to a larger area
in the foyer of Hall 3, releasing a lot of space for many more
club displays and Traders. Other
attractions will include a full size
Spitfire replica and a special display
by the British Titanic Society.
The headline speaker for this
year’s Meet The Maker event held in
conjunction with HobbyLink Japan
at Scale ModelWorld 2012 is Mr
Hideyuki Shigeta, President of Zoukei
Mura Inc. creator of the fantastic
range of Super Wing Series 1/32 scale aircraft. Mr Shigeta says
“I am excited and honoured to be offered the opportunity to give a
lecture at this historic show”. Mr Shigeta will give a one-hour lecture on
the concept and development of the Super Wing Series kits.
IPMS UK is also pleased to announce that as of 10 May, almost
exactly six months before the show opens to the public, all available
trade space at Scale ModelWorld 2012 has been booked. There will
be 170 diverse traders attending from all round the world and the
demand for trade space is such that there is already a waiting list in
case of cancellation.

added to the trade waiting list please contact Richard Kent, Scale
ModelWorld Organiser at scalemodelworld@ipms-uk.co.uk”

nnouncing the 2012 Scale Award, Revell will award the coveted ‘Scale’

building award and an exclusive invitation to
the European market leader in plastic model
kits for a behind-the-scenes day trip. There

up who come 2nd to 10th. The ‘teens’
category winner will receive a certificate and
