Kagemusha Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Very interesting, hope it comes with some exotic decal options such as Cuban, and Algerian. Zero77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Airfixer Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 (edited) Looks very promising. Quite apparently, they performed some decent surgery on the original Trumpeter MiG-23M/MF fwd fuselage, hence correcting the most glaring errors of the original kit(s). If the rest* of the conversion will be half as nice as the new fwd fuselage and the clear parts, we could have a winner. The windshield appears to be a wee bit too short, though... *Stbd wing glove Delta-NG bullet fairing, new exhaust nozzle, new NLG wheels and doors, rear fuseage bomb racks, etc. And most ideally, a new resin rudder depicting the correct centre rudder hinge without rudder dampers.

thierry laurent Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Excellent news!!! I hoped to get a MiG-27 but the 23BN is close. GusM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel111 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 That is good news... certainly my favorite 23! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalashnikov-47 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I'll buy that. Need Iraqi decals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I'll buy that. Need Iraqi decals. The Linden Hill sheet (32010) provides national markings and serial numbers - you'll need to rearrange these - suitable for the BN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GusM Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Looks nice. As mentioned I hope they might now consider doing a -27 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee White Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Is there many differences between the -23BN and the -27, other than the intake splitters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbetty Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 the canopy looks nice, hope it corrects the trumpy one, so we can also use it on the other Mig 23 models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I think the external shape of the intakes is a little bit different as well. The gun also changed and the landing gear was also modified. Actually there were more differences than one may think. Lee White 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I am also wondering if the wing glove was not changed as well. Last, the 27 had intake pylons. Lee White 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
