Flankerman Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 You are right Neffan - I forgot about the T10M.... You could build 15 of them - and no two the same! Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kotey Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 I don't think that Zvezda will release Su-30MKI/MKM/MKA and Su-35/37, but as i saw one of sprue in Su-30SM made with possibility add to future Su-35S model, if they will release in future.

Basuroy Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 What are the major aesthetic differences between an SM and MKI ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flankerman Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Visually, very little. The MKI has some western avionics, so the cockpit is slightly different, but AFAIK, that is all. The Malaysian MKM has more differences, with its MAWS and Laser Warning Antenna...... I built the MKI and MKM about a zillion years ago - converted from the the old Heller Su-27UB ... see here. IMHO, this is a missed marketing opportunity by Zvezda - a simple adittional sprue of the differences would allow them to maximise their investment on the Su-30SM kit. Plus both the MKI and MKM have been adorned with some stunning comemorative colour schemes over the years - another decal opportunity for Begemot. Ho Hum....

Silverkite Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Foreign Su-30 were built using Su-27UB fuselage or the beefed up T-10M fuselage? Luigi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robertone139 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Mmmmhh, if we swap forward fuselages between Zvezda's SU-33 and SU-30SM, we could get an early SU-35 and a J-15S. Mmmmhhh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please note the modified fins. The picture you posted is Su-27M/Su-35 (T-10M-9) which I report my progress here. J-15S (and Su-30MKM and SM) will be my next project when I clone Su-35UB nose upper and lower halves... Serkan 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drake122 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I just wanted to say it's awesome how far Zvezda engineering and kit manufacturing in general has come. When compared to their Su-27 SM from 2014, this kit is miles ahead, even the packaging is superb now (not a single bag for all technique anymore). Colored instructions sheet for marking options, excellent decals themselves, they don't even require decal solutions based on previous experience. Plastic parts without any huge sink marks, mismolds, etc. The only reason I'm not building yet is me waiting for Eduard/MetallicDetail/someone to come up with aftermarket goodies for even more detail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiG-Mech Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 There are two small sink marks, left and right, where in real life the canopy is attached. One red star decal's tip is a bit slushy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WP72090 Aren't there AL-31F thrust vectoring exhausts in the Zvezda? I just got one yesterday (and lovely it is!), and there are two full sets of exhaust nozzles on the new sprues, one marked for in flight and one for display on the ground.
