Homebee Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 (edited) After the MiG-23BN "Flogger-H" (http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234973404-148-mig-23bn-flogger-h-by-trumpeter-released/) and the MiG-27 "Flogger-D" (http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234996487-148-mig-27-flogger-d-by-trumpeter-released/), Trumpeter is to release in late August 2016 a 1/48th Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-27M "Flogger-J" - ref. 05803.

Muzz Posted June 30, 2016 Posted June 30, 2016 I've just got a hold of the 'Mig-27D' boxing of this kit, looks like a nice kit other than the problem with the nose but that won't put me off building it. Hopefully with this new boxing Trumpeter will allow for a scheme other than one with red stars on it like an Indian AF example perhaps! Muzz
petarvu Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 From the back of my head, there were no external difference between MiG-27D and M, one being upgraded examples other serial machines... Any info regarding box content and difference in plastic? Cheers P
Homebee Posted July 1, 2016 Author Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) You're right Pertavu. There's no external difference between MiG-27D and MiG-27M. - MiG-27M (M for модификациями - modified) or Article 32-29 were new build second generation fighter-bomber "Flogger". - MiG-27D (D for доработани - improved) or Article 32-27 were 1st generation fighter-bomber "Flogger" airframes returned to the factory to be upgraded to MiG-27M standard. Though their single NATO designation of "Flogger-J". V.P. Edited July 1, 2016 by Homebee

I think you might be mixing up the Russian version designation and the ASCC version designation. Trumpy isn't doing a MiG-27D AFAIK but a MiG-27 flogger D. 1

exdraken Posted September 3, 2016 Posted September 3, 2016 an Indian scheme oob! nice start! (waiting on a CWS nose correcting set before buying any of these though!)

Dudikoff Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) M/D? And there's already a D nose set. Was there like a 'late' D nose which matched the M one or what? I don't have any in-depth MiG-27 book to use as a reference. Edited July 20, 2017 by Dudikoff

I don't have any in-depth MiG-27 book to use as a reference. No. There's already a MiG-23BN "Flogger-H" (ref. CWS48005) and a MiG-27 "Flogger-D" (ref. CW48009) nose set but not yet a MiG-27D/M "Flogger-J" nose set (ref. CWS48010). There's also a MiG-27K "Flogger-J2" nose set in the pipeline (ref. CWS48011). See also here: V.P.

Dudikoff Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) Ah, sorry. I thought MiG-27D's were Flogger D's (like, the initial MiG-27 production variant), rather than initial ones upgraded to M standard which is what they were. Thanks for clearing that up. Edited July 20, 2017 by Dudikoff

Dudikoff Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Been waiting for this for quite a while given how long ago the MiG-27 nose was released. Finally!

exdraken Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 oh!" very nice! we are definitely missing Flogger decals. especially for the fighterbomber version! I do hope that the respective nose conversion/ upgrade sets are ready soon!

exdraken Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 (edited) Which Trumpeter base kit is best suited for this conversion? Simple intakes and short exhaust afaik..any relevant differences elsewhere? Edited August 11, 2019 by exdraken

Col. Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 Seriously tempting It'd make for an expensive project but at least it'd look correct and that's more than can be said for the standard kit. 3
