Do you realize that there's a war going on in Ukraine since the ignominous Ruϟϟian invasion from February 2022 ?

 

V.P.

A host of Ukrainian manufacturers are still proudly producing their wares. What's your point?

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

I just saw this on Aeroscale

Is this a new kit or did A & A release one before. I'm not familiar with there stuff, are they not so great?

According to Scalemates it was originally released in 2018.  I have no idea about the quality, I only build 1/48.

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...

So is A&A the same company as ModelSvit? And if A&A is so bad does that also imply the same for ModelSvit?

It was announced back in September of 2021, but then an invasion occurred in ModelSvit's home country which may have delayed progress somewhat.

Aren't they based in Bulgaria. Bulgaria hasn't been invaded (yet).

Dave,

This says Bulgaria:
https://www.modelsvit-eshop.com/en/contacts
 

Marc.


It says this at the very bottom of that page:

 

Modelsvit Balkans Ltd is a General partner and importer of Ukrainian brand "Modelsvit", specializing in production of unique Soviet warplanes scale kits and establishing itself as a quality leader in the "short run" production technology.

 

Also, I have their 1/48 F-82G kit and it says “Made in Ukraine” on the side of the box.
