blackbetty Posted April 12, 2019 Author Share Posted April 12, 2019 some more paint and decals. the lightning bolt and number are self made. the stars are from the kit sheet. it would have been nice to know that these are printd on a solid sheet and have to be cut out. i damaged one because i had to cut the wet decal.

Dany Boy Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Looking Splendid! Airfield operational Mig-9 jetfighters been described as outside looked like “peeled “ It is because the heights speeds overpressure. Даже внешне МиГ-9 выглядели облезшими, так как краска не выдерживала скоростных полетов. upor and Martinnfb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dany Boy Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 An interesting and unusual decoration of the leading Mig-9 Air parade Migs group 1st May 1947. blackbetty, Martinnfb and upor 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Molitor Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Wow this looks awesome as usual Karl. Just getting caught up on all your recent efforts. I certainly agree with the LEM kits. The fit is amazing and the close tolerance fit for a resin kit is a joy to work on. Your MiG is looking so late 40’s -50’s straight wing jet like. I saw saw one of these beast in the Chinese Aviation museum outside of Beijing. The massive cannons sticking out of the engine inlet will look the part soon enough. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Dany Boy Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Actually these massive canons positioned in the front, before the air opening nose part caused too many problems to Soviets. If Soviets keep sticks to original sketch plans of Focke Wulf J.P. 011 they won’t have so much troubles. As the reports says opening fire on 7000m by all 3 guns BMW engines (get choked ) and literally stop working. Even opening fire over then 3000m caused many troubles with engines, so it was strictly forbidden to the pilots to open fire from all guns at ones. Shooting with the 37-мм gun was allowed not higher then 3000m. “Большие проблемы возникали при стрельбе. При открытии огня на высоте более 3000 м силовая установка вела себя нестабильно (менялись обороты, температура газов, возникал помпаж), а во время залпа из трех пушек на высоте более 7000 м двигатели просто останавливались. Виновником отказов были пороховые газы, которые пушки в большом количестве отправляли прямо в воздухозаборник.” Для устранения этого серьезного недостатка от использования 57-мм орудия отказались и перешли на 37-мм калибр. Actually finally Mig’s engineers find the better gun position but it was too late, because Mig-15 rise. scvrobeson, upor, Alain Gadbois and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
