SMD version of MPSA18

I have been looking for an SMD package for the MPSA18 and I cannot find anything. Has anyone had any luck with finding this as an smd package?

that transistor does not have the same characteristics that I need to replace the MPSA18. I need the higher voltage handling capability, Lower noise figures and also higher gain specs. This is for a Push-pull gain stage to reduce Harmonic distortion.

Don't you need a matched PNP NPN pair for(optimal) push pull? May look at transistor arrays if that's the case.
I assumed this was for a pedal so didn't take voltage into account...

I'll add, check out the Alfa offerings

For this particular circuit, not really.
