MCQB Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 The armed version is Su-17m3, Soviet Naval Air Forces, 1980-1990 The red flag on the nose indicates that this aircraft was used by the Naval Air Force. The blue badge on the nose is the Sukhoi factory. The model itself is not bad, just some details on the fit of the wings on the pivots or axles of the same and the rudder, the photo etched pretty good and convincing, although I'm not clear whether or not repackaging or the sprue are old. The pics. Thanks for Watching. . . . . .keep in touch 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floggerman Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Congratulations! Very nice build! The kit is more than 20 years old (former OEZ) but still the only option. With Eduard upgrade not the worst. Interesting the navy flag, never seen this with a red bar (instead of blue). The SPS and KKR pods are included or AM? I just start to build the "Suzi" in 32 scale with the same configuration.

Skull Leader Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Excellent job on a pig of a kit! I've got one mostly built, but I really need to do some work on the wings. Your build inspires my own! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nimrod54 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 That is a lovely model of a subject not seen very often. I really like the paintwork and the subtle toning on the panels, well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
