1/72 mig-25PD

Hiya!

my first entry will be an iraqi mig-25PD, not sure what kit yet condor or hasegawa - depending on how lazy i feel

Iraqi foxbats were an interesting mix; they were upgraded to "1983 standard (MiG-25PDSG)" being given:

SPO-15 Beryoza-LE RHAWS with blisters on the intakes

KDS-155 flare dispensers on the wings

the longer nose and IRST of the PD, but the Smerch weapons system, no idea on radar



this defensive suite proved itself well during desert storm decoying a number of both aim-9s and 7s while in full afterburner!!

back to the kit:

i started by taking some KDS-155s from zvezda flogger kits, and legenthing to the correct legnth for the foxbat, its not quite correct yet though





compared to the origional:
