Modelsvit 1/72 Su-17M Fitter C Pac Fleet USSR 1970's


Recommended Posts

Here's my latest.

Rather new Modelsvit's Su-17M in 72 scale.

The model went together rather pleasantly, and apart from some headscratching moments with the landing gear the build was trouble free.

No filler was used all along.

The model was painted in tamiya acrylics, the gun plates were created from precut aluminium foil, and glued using future.

Decals from the kit, and behaved impeccably, just a touch of Mr.Setter to get them all snuggly in the shallow panel lines.

Weaponry in the kit was rather bad, so replaced the weapon load with the Ash.32 missiles from the Jak-38 Revell kit, with scratch built pylon.

Pitot had some vanes added from scraps of PE.

All in all enjoyable build.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers,
