1:72 Hasegawa Su-33 Flanker D Build Russia


Recommended Posts

The 1:72 scale Hasegawa kit of the Sukhoi Su-33 built as a Russian Navy aircraft wearing a non standard two colour scheme instead of the usual three colours.

 

Although this boxing is marked as Chinese Navy J-15, it is a standard Su-33. The J-15 has a few differences like antennas, weapons etc.

 

Build wise quite good, but did wonder why radome is moulded in two parts, another seam to sort out.

 

Colours used were Model Master 2126 blue overall and Model master 2132 blue grey.

 

Decals are from Begemot.

Another well built Flanker. Your models serve to show what a complex subject that these Sukhois can be. When I start to build them I shall have to consult you on which variant is which.
