madcop Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Agree with you all, but the ones on the kit look squarish. On your pics they are more rounded. My eyes maybe. Madcop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICMF Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Pretty sure it's just a fairing missing between the intake and splitter plate - the real plane has a slight sort of F-106/Viggen-type sweep where the intake lip meets the splitter plate, while the kit has an L-39-like hard crease. Annoying, but a little filler and some careful filing and it should look much better. IMO, less of an issue than the drop tanks, since they're harder to correct yourself.

Trenton guy Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 It doesn’t look any different. Perhaps markings? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never I saw a picture from a north korean Fantan, because, there is nothing. modelldoc This is my prob (trust me, i really like to be proven wrong!!) But digging through baidu, I never came up with anything. Ill buy a couple, but trumpeter really mucked up what is 80% close to being a great kit!! Aside from some things like the miniature cockpit:, drop tank shape, those rocket pods....... etc Q-5c - no proper drop tank pylons, just lazily made a tank attach to the weapon pylon. No forward fuselage pylons. Q-5yi - went to the effort to update sprue with proper drop tank pylon for a standard q-5, but the configuration is not correct for q-5yi! The torpedo pylons sit just inboard of the wing fence, and a smaller droptank is outboard of the wing fence (a la q-5f with lgb) Q-5 probable fictitious nkpaf markings, no forward fuselauge pylons If they update their q-5c kit wih the newer wing sprue, that would be my pic of the bunch, but then again i say put both tails in the box and add more weapons for my dream edition! 😍 Edited December 31, 2018 by Modelraynz Spells 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
