July 28, 2024This is a very good reference book with A LOT of details and additional informations for scale modelers!4
July 28, 2024First I built the ejection seat to evaluate if I had to buy an aftermarket one. I stuck with the kit one as I plan to built the AC in static. When parked some sort of canvas is placed on the ejection seat. I plan to replicate that, so there was no need for aftermarket seat.5
July 28, 2024All the sprues were labeled.6
July 28, 2024The Su-22 is quite a big bird!!!7
