An Su-9 - brilliant! Now that's one I need to pick up. Always liked this particular Soviet aeroplane. I presume from the decals that an Su-11 (it had different, longer nacelles) is also in the works.

BTW, it had no connection to a Me-262 - that was just Yakovlev trying to rubbish Pavel Sukhoi by spreading misinformation to Stalin.

The Su-9 had RD-10 turbojets (Jumo 004), the Su-11 had the home-grown Lyulka TR-1 in bigger nacelles.

Excellent indeed! Any word as to when this'll be available for purchase?

His kits are about the most beautiful resin renderings I've ever come across. It's almost a shame to actually build them as their fit, finish, engineering and detail is so well done.
