Red Dog Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Does anyone has an easy to read/look at reference for Soviet/Russian aircraft weaponry? Something that covers and describes what all the prefixes and suffixes mean and covers all air to air & air to surface missiles, guided & unguided bombs etc. Starting to get a handle on a few terms but still need more info. Got few Russian jets in the stash and just trying to get possible loadouts organised. Starting out getting the terminology in order and what aircraft would use what weapons. Should have plenty with the kits I've got in the stash (all 1/48) Trumpeter Su-24M 'Fencer D' KP Su-25K 'Frogfoot' Hobby Boss Su-27 'Flanker B' Kitty Hawk Su-34 'Fullback' Kitty Hawk Su-35 'Flanker E' (already started and in the paint shop) PS. Any word on how the Hobby Boss's Su-25 is coming along? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pin Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 There was a really comprehensive set of articles in Russian about soviet aircraft weaponry with good line drawings in Russian M-Hobby magazine. I think it was published as a separate book, not sure if it was translated into English Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
