Question: Is the VMAR F18 retract ready?

Answer: No the VMAR F18 is not retract ready. The F18 is a very unique design and we could not find any retract makers who had an economical reliable retract suitable for this model.

In theory a very skilled modeller could possibly adapt retract equipment available in the market to fit into the VMAR F18 and/or a machinist could make a set of retracts and then modify the VMAR F18 to accept them. This is a great deal of work and may not lead to a workable solution.

We do supply a set of functional Oleo Struts (3) for the VMAR F18 that work well and look very scale like.
