Homebee Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) Not only MiG-21 PFM but also the R and the PF pp.7-8 Source: http://www.eduard.com/store/out/media/InfoEduard/archive/2013/info-eduard-2013-01EN.pdf JULY - SEPTEMBER Also known as the third quarter. The hot summer months typically see a corresponding cooling of interest in models, which, in the heat of the summer months, could theoretically be refreshing. The focus of part of our team will now shift from the Spitfire to the new MiG-21PFM in 1/48th scale. This is the next evolution of the preceding third generation versions released, and incorporate wide ranging changes that focus largely on the airframe. The model has a new wing and fuselage to represent the second generation MiG-21 that had first and foremost, a different fuselage spine arrangement. There are also new interior details with a new instrument panel, and a list of external parts, such as the GP-9 gun pack or the twin hardpoint Monzum for 2 x 2 R-3S missiles, used by the East Germans and the Poles. The MiG-21PFM also did some combat in their day, and their biggest claim to glory is without a doubt the war in Vietnam as equipment used very effectively by the North Vietnamese Air Force. The Vietnamese MiGs also carried atypical camo schemes and often kill marks below the cockpit, and, as such, you can be certain that these will not be missing from the marking options. The second generation MiG-21 project will be expanded to include other variants, first of which will be the MiG-21PF. This will again include a new fuselage and wing, a new fin, a new canopy. As fans of the Fishbed will no doubt be aware, the PFM and PF were considerably different aircraft. The PF, and subsequent versions, are not slated for release until the following year, so there is still reason to remain calm. What might excite some, however, is the MiG-21R, which (surprisingly to some of you, no doubt) we have added to the phase of the project focusing on the second generation of twenty-ones. In fact, the ‘MF’ was derived from the ‘R’, and the latter really does have more in common with the ‘PFM’ than it does the ‘MF’. The MiG-21R will be coming in the fourth quarter of 2013, and there will be more discussion on it below. (...)E-day will not only be about the MiG-15, but we plan on also having the aforementioned MiG-21R ready in time for the event as well. At last year’s E-day, I announced that the likelihood of releasing the R version as a BFC member offering was much greater and that the differences between the versions would be dealt with in resin. Over the course of working on the forms for the MiG-21PFM, the project began to change direction, in one that should be a lot more within the comfort zone of modelers, and make the MiG-21R a classic, complete kit. So, for the R variant, we have decided to develop a new lower wing section with appropriate reconnaissance features, and also to include the photo reconnaissance containers. It will be necessary to add some scribed panel lines, and to putty others over, though, but this should pose no real problems for anybody. There are also some small differences in the cockpit. The result will be a full fledged MiG-21R that I am hoping will be the second main attraction for the upcoming E-day event. And since we are back at E-day again, can you take a guess at the door prize kit for the show? Well, it will be a kit that will then be released on its own, but at this point, I am not at liberty to divulge any more about it. So there! V.P.

Max Headroom Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Looks very nice. Now I'm going to be shot down here but it looks like a PF spine not a PFM which I always thought was the same shape as an MF? I'm going to duck now. Trevor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeR Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Goofy marketing at Eduard.... No worse than the magazine adverts for their canopy masks! It'll be interesting to see what the marking options are for the PF when it appears - I rather fancy having a silver Egyptian aircraft to go with the Mirage IIICJ I have in the stash. Mike.

Did anyone notice that the aircraft in the video is a MiG-21MF??? I won't comment on the blond as I've been to Prague a few times and got bored of seeing everywhere. (Ditto for Warsaw and Bratislava). What the hell is wrong with Eastern Europe??? Incredibly hot women all over the place. Do 40 years of Communism have something to do with it??? (Only joking....)

Jennings Heilig Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 The hottest looking women I saw in Prague all seemed to be on the arms of obvious (and I mean really obvious) Russian mobsters. Beefy Russian guys with shaved heads, wearing $2000 suits, and driving $80,000+ cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. Maybe could have had some brassin thrown in too. Looking at the parts its just the normal profipack edition with new decals. Nothing that special or limited about it apart from perhaps the quantity they will release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
