Big Planes Kits, or BPK for short, continues to expand its line of 1/72 scale 737 airliners with a P-8A Poseidon. This highly modified 737-800EX is the latest in antisubmarine, antiship, and reconnaissance patrol aircraft in service with the U.S. Navy and several allied air forces. This kit is a welcome addition to my U.S. military aircraft collection and a fine-looking model once finished! Ah, but putting it together, that’s a different story.
BPK’s 737 kits are modular, so some sprues are specific to the Poseidon, and a few parts on other “universal” sprues are not used at all.
