CV-61 USS Ranger
by Patrick Cosgrove

 1/542 scale USS Ranger CV-61 (Revell).

Here's my model of the Ranger (built around 1985).  I realize that Ranger never oprated Hornets, and that the forward weapon pylons were never removed, but I wanted to do an update on my first model carrier.  The E-2's were built from scratch, as no one makes a decent version in this scale.  This is more accurately a Independence model during the Gulf War.
