The Ukrainian Su-27UB boxing appears to have been released, hopefully putting to bed the "will it, won't it" chat. Seen a photo of a boxing in someone's possession on a Flanker builders group on FB!

Yeah, I've gotten a reply from GWH that it's not canceled a few days ago, but they didn't say when it's going to be released. Glad to see it's out already.

Great Wall, why no re-issue of the single-seater Su-27 in Ukrainian markings? The war has been going on for more than a year. I suspect you would sell more than a few of those in the West right now. Actually any re-release of this would be OK as there are plenty of third-party decals and masks to do a Ukrainian example. It's Very difficult to find at the moment other than paying silly prices on eBay.

Hi Middo,

 

Have you checked the early morning grocer?

I was looking at this on hobbyeasy.com but the shipping is the same cost as the kit.

This is available from the Chinese eBay sellers from which I have purchased with no issues whatsoever. However, there’s been a considerable bump in price. I’ve been flipping back and forth between this boxing and GWH’s Su-27UB. The MKI is currently about $ 20-25 CAD more from these sellers. I may have to sit this one out at least until the anticipation settles down. Gorgeous aircraft nonetheless.
