Hi! NVA MiG-21s did not have identification insignia on the wings.
-
All missiles that have transverse stripes are mockups. There are no stripes on combat missiles.
-
Usually only the central fuel tank is used, it is enough to solve combat tasks. Tanks under the wings are used for long-distance flight, for example, Syria - Russia. But there are no restrictions on the use of underwing tanks together with weapons - the maximum possible load is 4 tons. If you make a model and with tanks and weapons it will not be a mistake, but in real life it does not used.

Hi! Of course, the SMT modification can use 1100-liter underwings fuel tanks

Arma Models announced the release of the Ka-50. I suppose they will start with a 1/48 scale -
Hi! To date, all Kazakh MiG-31s have been modernized in Russia, and some of them have practically been upgraded to the MiG-31BM modification. It is known that Kazakh interceptors are just as equipped as Russian vehicles. Moreover, Kazakhstan received the latest weapons for them, including R-37E missiles. There is no information about the R-77, but I think that their use is possible, taking into account the purchases of Su-30SM aircraft by Kazakhstan. Regards, Sergey

I think that there will be no details about this helicopter until the end of the special military operation. -

Paulsbrown, very good work! I see a very beautiful conversion! These are photos of the test assembly. Based on the results of this work, correctons are made to the set. As far as I know, 2 people are currently doing this for Arma Models, and these are photos of one of them. What paints and materials he uses for the assembly - is not reported. -

The barrel of the gun in the kit is made of 3D resin, you can buy it separately from metal. The wheels of landing gear in the kit are less detailed, and can buy additionally with more details. The Ka-52, shot down in February, remained on the ground, the crew was evacuated by another Mi-24 that came to the rescue. There was another case of forced landing of the Ka-52. The crew was able to repair the helicopter on their own and flew away. P.S. Bonus - in progress pics -

The kit is not yet for sale. The manufacturer is completing minor improvements to various parts - grilles, vacuformed canopy -

I could help some modellers, post service works fine. However, the transfer of money from the US and Europe to Russia is now very difficult due to sanctions on the banking system -

When ordering a Ka-52 kit, can choose few options with Arma Models pilots - sitting in the cockpit, after the flight, helicopter inspection, emergency landing -
Thank you, Gabor, for your efforts in collecting and systematizing information! Annetra looked very interesting in my opinion. I hope the project is still alive. Unfortunately, one inadequate person tried to do the same for political reasons with the topic on the Ka-52, but the moderators turned out to be fair and figured out this situation. Thanks to this, we can return to modeling and discuss only those things that are related to the building of modelkits and real prototypes.

It's reasonable to do this not as a solid part, otherwise the polymer consumption will be very large. Therefore, the fuselage is hollow inside, the fuselage thickness is 1.5 mm, and all weight is 64 grams. -

Hi all! Some parts are given in duplicate - this is a test print to determine the most optimal position of the parts and their supports, according to the results of the assembly for such parts, one option will be selected. The same applies to different colors of the polymer, in the series there will also be one and most likely not black. There are no rotor blades, cannons and transparent parts, this are still in production. Regards -

Quinta studios cockpit for Arma Models -
Announced Yak-141 in 1/48. The model will be made using a hybrid technology - 3D printing and resin. The renders are very approximate so far - the engine is more detailed. Details about the model are promised later.
