Arthur Driscol 11 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 What a fabulous surprise ! One of my all time favorites, although I thought my chances of ever seeing one of these produced were slim indeed. A glazed nose version would be especially welcome. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
general melchett 10,042 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 At last...after the Hippo one seemed to die off too, my favourite version of my favourite Soviet era fighter, in my favourite scale...short nose too !!...excellent stuff, will definitely be getting one or two of these, lets hope for an increase in the family at some point !

exdraken 10,845 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 looking forward to these obscure Soviet types! a lot to learn about them for sure... Link to post Share on other sites
tony.t 290 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 New Fishpot out and a Maiden and Foxhound on the way, and now the Firebar - this is seriously eroding my willpower to stay away from 1/48! A decent Flagon and Foxbat would break it. Tony Link to post Share on other sites
FranciscoPRG 21 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Lovely! I´d prefer the Yak-25 Flashlight, with its bulbous nose, but this is sure not to be missed! Cheers, Xuntong! Link to post Share on other sites
Richard123 40 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Am I right in thinking the Brewer was the bomber version? Hope we get one too! Link to post Share on other sites

general melchett 10,042 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Richard, basically the Yak-28 Brewer was a tactical bomber, (the B in Brewer gives it away), but there were also a few special missions variants, the Yak-28R or Brewer-D could carry out high speed, medium/low level photo missions. To complicate matters further there were sub variants of the aircraft, notably the Yak-28SR, Brewer-D, (tactical recon), the Yak-28RR, (radiation intelligence gatherer), Yak-28RL, (a standard Yak-28L bomber fitted out for RINT duties) and Yak-28PP, (Brewer-E) ECM platform, as with several Soviet era aircraft nothing is ever as simple as it first seems.....
