I think the interceptor version is one of the icons of the cold war and definitely needs to be kitted accurately both the P and the PD, Having whatever parts necessary to kit Viktor Belenko's Foxbat would be a important selling point. From what I understand you just can't put a Red #31 and get away with it. Plus I think the Interceptor version has been exported more ( I could be wrong on that tho :o ) Next would be the recon/bomber versions. I would like to see the MiG-25BM Foxbat F, myself Then the trainer's This is how I would do it, my opinions only!

I love the separate interior parts for the canopy!!! People don't realize how beefy those structures are.I worked military jets for 30+ years and this is one of the first representation of that type of structure I've seen in a kit.

On most walk-around photos I've seen, it appears that the interior of the MiG-31 wheel well and other interior panels i.e. gear doors speedbrake interiors and even the intake trunks look like painted aluminium. Is that correct? or is it just bare aluminium with specific panels primed in a yellowish/zinc-chromatish color. Thanks in advance!

Will the different wing pylons and different missiles also be included in that B/BS variant? Thanks for being patient with our questions!!

Well in the first few pages of this thread (depending how your browser/options are configured) the CAD drawings show MiG-31 B parts i.e big pylons,different antennas,Acrid and Aphid missiles etc. So I think another version will eventually come out.

Well I think I want to do a Kazakhstan AF bird with those big ol R-40's under the wing!

Thank you very much Drew!! forgot about that feature!

signatures or what ever they are. They make a one line post take up the whole screen. I love pictures but not the same one over and over...

Sorry about the double post guys I was tring to change the year from 2106 to 2016 and it created a double post. MODS can you please fix my bad???

Sorry about the 2106!!! Didn't see that post

I like learning how other folks do things!

What about TGM's as long as the carts are out of the rack we left them stay on the jets, our guys would reverse the cart holder in the rack to show they were empty. Also it was dependent what type of MX was going to be done in the hangar, if it was a radio write for example and the pointy heads convinced the pro-sup to put the jet inside then they would probably safe it for hangar entry and bring it in. If it was coming in for a 400 hr phased inspection, it would be cleaned off and downloaded.

I'm Sorry your incorrect, If there are any explosives (other than CADS/PADS) i.e. rack cartridges the carts in TERS/MERS. In your scenario they would remove the carts (if installed) and push the jet inside. I should clarify that the little 25lb BDU-33 or as the navy folks call it the Mk. 76 has an explosive smoke marker charge in the nose so they would be removed where as a BDU-50 (inert Mk-82) has nothing in it except concrete :P/> it can get pushed in the hangar as soon as the rack or TER carts are removed.

Long -184 pods are also carried by A-10's but only in certain theaters PACAF

Yes on Stations 3 & 9. But it isn't done that often because its super draggy and the exhaust from the rocket motor damages the gearpod. But it can be done. I think Mass and CT hogs did it the 1st few days of OIF on Station #3 as station #9 was being used by the Litening pod.

yes

Probably a MK 84 there isn't enough clearance for the fins for a LGB

2000 lb class, But I have never seen the C/L station used for anything but fuel, not to say that it couldn't happen, but I've never seen it.

It can be done but you would actually lose range as the weight drag ratio is so high it negates the extra 600 gals. We used to deploy with two tanks on 4 & 8 and we changed to lust using the C/L on Station 7 as we found that to be the most efficient. Please keep in mind they've added a lot of avionics to the hog and haven't added any extra thrust.

You're killing me Smalls!!

That link leads to a story that's 12 years old...

There were,,, the two Su-27UB's that were in Delaware went back to the Ukraine. Don't know why..
