The construction of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution's Alvin was considered from around 1960, and it was launched in 1964. In 1968, it sank when its suspension rope broke and it was on the ocean floor for about half a year, but it was recovered and restored. It was subsequently improved during an overhaul, and in an overhaul from 1985 to 1986, Alvin's propellers were replaced with small, highly efficient multiple screw units, evolving into the shape shown in the image. At the same time, it was given the ability to link with Jason Junior. Jason Junior accompanied Alvin from the Titanic survey in 1986 until 1991. It was eventually lost when it sank along with a barge during a ferry trip.

The Mitsubishi F-2 is a Japanese-made long-cruise version of the F-16. It's a crazy modification that allows the small fighter F-16 to ferry four anti-ship missiles. The wing area has increased by about 25 percent, but the wing loading is almost the same. The armament weight is not much different from the original F-16, but the fuel tank capacity has been expanded by more than twice to attack in wide territorial waters.

When exhibiting models in Japan, they are sometimes damaged by earthquakes, like Godzzila in Sim-City. It's not a good idea to exhibit a lot of models, but the model warehouse is also damaged.

I repaired the broken main rotor shaft(A,B) of an AH-64D that was slammed into a wall and fell due to a big tremor. I replaced the shaft with a 1.5mm brass pipe(C). I also repaired the broken shaft of the solar panel of Thunderbirds 5 in the movie version, and the terrace house around the launch port of Thunderbirds 3, which was poorly installed.

It was an unpopular 2004 movie, but the design of the rescue mechanism doesn't seem too bad, except for the container system of TB 2.

Japanese Phantom II. The only F-4E series manufactured outside the United States. MITSUBISHI F-4EJ, F-4EJ -KAI. And the RF-4Ej KAI, which is F-4EJ equipped with reconnaissance pods and the RF-4E.

The ground attack and aerial refueling capabilities have been removed from the early F-4E model, and a hard wing with leading edge flaps has been adopted to emphasize acceleration during scramble takeoffs. There are no leading edge slats.

The KAI model has regained some of its bombing capability.

In fantasy works, the size of fantasy vehicles is expanded without limit, so many of the models are not reproduced to scale. Although they are non-scale models, science fiction models add color and liven up our collections.

A series of scale models, such as 1/144 and 1/700, once sold by Takara Tomy in Japan. A type of candy toy. It was named "bath toys" because it came with bath salts.
