So the canopy that comes with the 1/48 is missing the central strut after some research it seems that the only mig-23 variant that has the canopy missing the central strut is the 23S which is an extremely early version, seems like trumpeter includes the correct canopy for all of their other 1/48 mig-23s but I couldn't find any of the other variants on sale without having to import from overseas.

 

With only having the 23M as an option is there any (simple) way I could fix it so that it's the correct shape? Considered using 0.3mm styrene sheets or the left over material from photoetch.

 

Did also try to see if I could find any aftermarkets that could fix the canopy but alas no results popped up.

M3 is the one that came with the mig-23M and M2 coming with the other mig-23 kits from trumpey, there is a line there but seems to just be a mold line
