Hope it's cheap so I can buy a pair of Mittens.

Have two of the Amodel kits of the armed prototype, just need someone to do an M346 now.

The Yak-130/M346 really is a neat looking aircraft, isn't it?

 

And yes, I'd like to see an M346 as well, though with the almost identical configuration of the two it ought not to be beyond the skills of the average modeller to convert the Yak-130.

How different is the M346 from the Mitten?

Cockpit, complete landing gear, panel lines of engine intake areas (Yak-130 has anti-FOD intake devices, not the M-346) and engine nozzle area are very different.

Hi all,

 

I have been thinking same question with Hongdu L-15. They got in early phases some consultancy from Yakovlev but would L-15 conversion made any sense?  At least rear fuselage and horizontal stabilizers are totally different looking more like a twin-engined F-16, intakes are different and wing trailing edge angle seems to differ.

 

Greetings,

Good to see Belarusian paint scheme, because those aren't only grey, but green!

I hadn't seen the Belarus scheme so googled it. They're VERY green aren't they!? Think I'll get one just for that camo.

Looks great Kotey !

Do you know what are the yellow things in the main landing gear bays ?

It is only styrene imitation of pipelines, i dont't know why only its were painted. Thuis part in same sprues as other - so its all same light grey colour.
