Good look! Airliners modelling was really hit by that conflict. About name, I think it should be unique, so Google search doesn't return funny results. Maybe name of oblast or city you are located could be used? Anyway, if you are going to produce mostly airliners, then my idea is "UAliner" or "UR-liner". PS. I would love to make IL-62m in Ukraine government markings, I hope someone will pick up idea!

Going by current trends, maybe another Bayraktar? 😁 Poland have ordered them too.

Going by Japanese hint, a new Val is my guess too. First three Japanese aircraft I read about were "Zero, Kate and Val", and first two are pretty well covered. Also Polish connection isn't a important factor any more.

1/144 - Lun-class MD-160 Ekranoplan by Takom - released
Botan replied to Homebee's topic in The Rumourmonger
In 1/72 scale it would be over 1 meter long. I rather expect it to be 1/144. There is nice visualisation of this ekranoplan:- 49 replies

Botan replied to Putty Animal's topic in The Rumourmonger
Transport aircraft used in civilian use or the other way from 40's would be nice and be closer to your main are of interest, like de Havilland DH.91 Albatross, Avro York (for example LV633 Ascalon, Churchill's personal aircraft.), Vickers VC.1 Viking, Avro Lancastrian. and such. -
Is that just a wish, or if not may I ask for source?

So Martinet is from Smer, C-47is from Airfix

I'm bit disappointed by kits chosen to be released in 1/144 scale. I hoped some older kits with no other kits in mentioned scale would appear, like Fokker 100, which are hard to obtain and have to be search as second-hand.

Quantum , owners of Revell, have bought SMV, owners of Carrera.
Botan replied to Tzulscha's topic in The Rumourmonger
From this message alone I can not deduce that Carrera Bought Revell, It could otherwise or both are owned by he same entity? -
New Arma Hobby models to be announced tomorrow 30 December
Botan replied to TEMPESTMK5's topic in The Rumourmonger
It's not a type, same is written in Polish. I assume aside new tool kit some new scheme variants of older kits will be announced too. And Indian air force. Too bad nobody made aftermarket decals for those. I'm I remember correctly, in the past those were in plans. -
There is even built video on Youtube: Building the New Tamiya T34-85 (1/48th scale ) I hope for Renault FT-17 in 1/48.
-
So I think Roden is ruled out and so I bet on Amodel.

I found out HaHen - Harald Hensel also have some interesting decals. for some time. Convair CV 440 from German Executive Transport Wing and Convair CV 440 from Lufthansa.
