as I sed, wow again!

 

[Airframes]

Nice, and I agree about the Flanker. I'm puzzled though; how come the Falnker looks so big against the other 1/72nd scale models behind it? It looks like it's 1/48th in the pic.

 

[Catch22]

Both look good, but I'll just be another echo and say I prefer the Flanker.

[Lucky13]

Loooove the B-47! One of the most beautiful bomber jets ever built! Now, wonder why people think that the Swedish J 29 Tunnan is modeled on the Ta 183.....

 

[marek]

Great model again!

Luft 46 rules. Loved the B-47. Nicely done in 1/144th. Airframes the Flanker is a beast in size with a 50ft wingspan, length of 70ft and almost 86,000lb max weight (Su-34). If you think about that it is almost 10ft longer than an F-4 and has a 12ft greater wingspan. It is in the F-111 class in size and almost in the Tu-128 Fiddler regime. A big bird indeed.

Here are some pics of he Su-34 that is a direct derivative to give you some scale.

 

[Matt308]

Oh... and it has a toilet behind the pilot/co-pilot positions.

 

[badbear]

Hope they put the lid down before looping the loop.HeHe BB
