THX,

@Exdraken

 

25101 is prototype for 2nd series ORAO's , with hybrid wing ( with strake ) , and more significantly, with afterburned RR Vipers (633-41 type) ..
This Orao SY-1 is first (and only)  Yugoslav produced plane which broke through the sound barrier , on November 22nd 1984., reaching M 1,04 , flown by Lt Coll. Marjan Jelen from VOC ( Test Centre) , over Batajnica-Belgrade.

This plane is now displayed at UTVA Pančevo factory , as gate guardian.

Hi Nenad,

 

great Orao. The paintjob looks really great and is a nice break from the dull camo jobs normally seen. Great idea using decals for the panel lines, looks very convincing.

How was the kit to build? I've only seen the Rare Resin kit once and it looked quite rough. Considering that your outcome is even more impressive :yes:

 

Cheers

Markus

Thanx Markus, 
Kit is crude, made from brittle resin and have some accuracy issues , but is buildable, with basic resin kit building skills, and is real represent of  low  range of resin kits from  some 10+ years ago.

Anyway, i enjoyed this build, and use it  to try some new techniques, like mentioned laser pronted decals .

Cheers

Nenad
