Homebee Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) A Kitty Wok representative has published in a Chinese forum some CADs from elements of the kits to come.

Sukhoi Su-17/-22 "Fitter" kit? Any help to identify the following items? Thanks in advance. V.P. Edited February 1, 2016 by Homebee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petarvu Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Gun is GSh-301 30 mm from MiG-29/Su-27 !!! That engine could be Al-21!!! EDIT: it is not :-( Edited January 15, 2016 by petarvu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homebee Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Thanks pertavu! You're right, definitely a GSh-301. http://weaponsystems.net/weaponsystem/ii04%20-%20GSh-301.html Engine looks like a Saturn AL-31FP/FM Turbofan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturn_AL-31 With the GSh-301 cannon this could confirm the idea of a "Flanker"/"Fullback" advanced variant kit in design. Scale? The Flanker/Fullback are really big fighters... To be followed. V.P. Edited February 1, 2016 by Homebee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petarvu Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 In 1/32 ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rom1 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 We live in a golden age for Russian scalemodels. I'm... happy Maybe a line of Flankers? as Hobbyboss announced theirs in 1/48th. In 1/32nd scale we have the trumpeters... but not perfect though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1/32nd scale we have the trumpeters... but not perfect though.. Very true, it does appear as though the Russian aircraft industry is finally being produced accurately in kit form. It's only taken about 25 years (end of the Cold War and access to former Soviet aircraft). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzz Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 The pylon attached to the gunpod certainly appears to be a Su-22 Fitter pylon, definitely not for a Su-25 Frogfoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvy5 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Muzz you're right. SPPU-22 and pylon for the Su-17/22, but now is for shooting back. He should have adapter for this option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
