Today, Mr. Sulc wrote on modelforum that neither 72nd SMT, R, bis, or 48th UM will not be made this year.

Modelsvit makes models in Ukraine, they just have a warehouse / distributor in Bulgaria.

I was saving up some Aztec modelling decals for 72nd scale Cuban Mig-21bis from future Eduard kit. I will now say there is no point and just build the Zvezda bis instead. Or find a resin conversion set for Eduard MF (if such thing exists).

A&A released one in 2018 indeed. It was a proper horrible kit. Bad surface quality, sink marks, half done panel lines, thick and foggy clear parts, bad fit all around. This new boxing is supposed to have revised fuselage and wing parts, but I am not convinced until some sprue shots are shown. The original kit is only recommended for those with blind love for the type, or for masochists in general...

Hoping for this in 72nd scale as well. The AA models offering a few years back was atrocious...

Certainly, in this day and age of 3D printing, etc., modellers shouldn't be making harnesses out of masking tape, etc. Whether moulded crudely in plastic, or provided in PE/resin, or a combination of those, or fabric - it is all good in my eyes, as long as the manufacturers make an effort.

Glorious modeling work!

Looking good, will you be rescribing the raised detail?

I reckon Mig-29 in 72nd scale, to cash in on the Kiev Ghost bandwagon.

Advertised for August 2022. Altough, the Cheetah D was supposed to be out in April, yet it is still unavailable in most of Europe from what I see in eshops.

...

Topic creator did not clarify which scale. 🙄 Zvezda has, in fact, already released several Su-25 types in 72nd, but they are not really exceptional.

You can buy an aftermarket Oerlikon KCA by Maestro models, I believe.

...

Indeed, I built 3 already, still one in the stash, but I feel like I need to get me some more Kfirs, haha.

Seriously? All of this is just unnecessary loss of life and something that shouldn't happen in the 21st century and you people here argue about which side is right and which one is wrong? This is a modeling forum, about a hobby that people enjoy because it lets them forget about every day life and problems and conflicts like this. So stay on topic or frack off please...
