28ZComeback Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 My guess is F3D-2 Skynight in 1/48 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't hold my breath for that companion to my 2000 and Rafale A though. I'd really like them to scale up their T-10-10/11 Su-27 prototype to 1/48. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VMA131Marine Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 My guess would be either the Curtiss XP-40Q or the Republic XP-72 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Releasing the IV wouldn't go a miss before they worry about any more releases. The IV has been 'coming soon' for a couple of years now. Having said that, I'm sure they are just waiting for me to finish rescribing the Heller kit before finally announcing it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Thank You for your sacrifice in anticipation 🤣 I've recently found one in the deep stash that I had forgotten all about. Think I'll hold on for a while before starting it.

Homebee Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 (edited) Rumours say it could be a Sukhoi Su-15 - variant ? To be followed V.P. Edited January 22 by Homebee 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
28ZComeback Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 (edited) In keeping with their history, I would suggest a Douglas F3D Skynjght in 1/48. There is a CzechModel kit but it’s from a different decade. Another kit that would be cool is a 1/48 Yak-25 Flashlight. Or a 1/48 Supermarine Swift.

SAT69 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Some time ago, in response to a comment requesting a 1/48 scale F-86H, they responded, twice in the same response, they would seriously consider it. It would be in keeping with their tendency to produce models of not quite lesser know airplanes produced by North American Aviation. I'mm certainly hoping it's the Sabre H. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A -15TM most likely, if this is true. Would relegate the Trumpeters to conversion parts for a -15UM two-seater or early conical radomed, single nosewheel, balilaika-winged variant. 2 hours ago, dragonlanceHR said: Sauce?

John Thompson Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 A Su-15TM would be very welcome, although I don't know whether I'd buy it in 1/48; enjoy, to all those who would. Maybe some day we'll have a good "Flagon F" in 1/72. The only 1/72 Su-15TM I can think of that's worth thinking of is the highly-detailed but cantankerous-to-build Amodel one. The PM "Su-21" is a toy, although okay as a starter kit; IIRC, there's a Su-15 "Flagon A" by Trumpeter, but it's not very accurate. Have I missed any?

tony.t Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 8 minutes ago, dragonlanceHR said: I do. Because I want one and despise the abomination made by the trumpet player. Me too, terribly. Sorry, my bad syntax: I should have said 'if it's true, who cares [what the source is]?' Or even sauce, come to that. If the Modelsvit kit is truly a Su-15TM Flagon I am in for two and, as previously suggested, will use my Trumpeter two-seater as conversion parts to make an Su-15UM. If Modelsvit do boxings of other variants, those will be irresistible too. The Flagon's one of my all-time favourite jet interceptors and very sadly overlooked in 1:48 given that 1,272 of all marks were built between 1966 and 1980.

John Trumpeter has a Su15TM/F in 1/72, with all the problems of its 48 scale kit, At last there's a limited run Su21 F from VES, with an incredible level of details, all the rivets, etc ... anyway its construction is a real challenge for ultrapatient and talented people. It should be quite accurate.

Is there any accurate 1/72 Su 15? I think the AModel kit is basically correct if a nightmare to build, but it’s shape is not close the the Trumpeter kit’s.

Karearea Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Considering Modelsvit quality, I think I’d need to pick one up to go with the SH-37 I was planning to build sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
