Does anyone know if there are any aftermarket sources for Mk 84 AIRs? Hasegawa has the Mk 84 LDGP but no AIR.

Thanks.

AIR = Air Inflated Retarder, aka ballutes

Right...I'm brain fried right now...working OT does that to you. But a pic would be helpful to determine if a kitbash can be made.

They look like inflated pillowcases hanging off the tail end of the bomb. Found a crude drawing of a Mk82 AIR on fas.org but no pics:

no, I know what they look like, I just wanted a pic of the actual bomb. Don't the fins look like the regular retarded bomb fins?
