F-16C Falcon Block 50 Hellenic AF Dragchute Housing
I have a decal set of the Greek Hellenic AF. I know the Tamiya F-16CJ fighting Falcon Block 50 fits the kit I need. However, I’m in search of a particular dragchute housing. Wolfpack has it but it is out of stock and discontinued.
Is there another aftermarket company that makes it?

Can't find it in my regular places. Seems like you could scratch built that 
The Hellenic version (type 3) is a bit simpler with less bits and bobs
Start with something like this?

I prefer not to scratch build one... 
I believe some Viper kits have an option to an extended dragchute in certain kits. If anyone has spares, I'll take it...

The thought did come to mind. I just don't know who or what company.

Unfortunately I don't have it in any of my kits.

What scale are you looking for? I might have one or two in 1/48.

You know that's the one thing I hate about Wolfpack's stuff. They don't make a lot and once it's sold out it's gone forever.

Yeah. I looked at every online store that carried it and every single one of them says is out of stock or discontinued. Frustrating….
