carter478 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) The MiG-25, sheerly a flying steel beast of the cold war. Although build with low-tech, however, it is still one of the fastest and highest-flying military aircraft of history. The shape of pitot tube was wrong, so I removed the "branches".(="=??) Enlengthen the nose cone for about 3mm by plastic sheet according to the blueprint. This kit fitted not well as I expected, massive gap between the fuselage and wing, moreover, terrible step on the nose connection as you can see...... Thankfully, it turned out okay, here is the result: By the way, it was my second military model that I purchased, where did the courage come from? Tremendous nozzles, just ask the hind pilots (it is unfinished, sorry about that)! Such a romantic!!! (to me=..=) Thanks for your watching and see you next time!
