1/32 MiG-23BN, Czech Air Force 1991

Hello,

 

this is my MiG-23BN, black 9139, of the 28th fighter-bomber squadron, Czech Air Force, based at Caslav Air Base.

.

The port wing of this airplane was replaced with another at the end of the 1990 or beginning of 1991, and therefore has slightly different shades of the basic colors.

The reason for the heart-shaped patch is unknown...

In this this way, 9139 also flew without the bird-head marking, and only had the city crest on the armour plates.

This airplane suffered also a bird-strike and repairs includes the replacement of the port intake ramp and bleed air vents that was sprayed in non-standard green paint.

 

The model is based on the Trumpeter MiG-23MF converted in the BN using the HpH resin conversione set.

Some other details came from:

  • Eduard's PE sheets
  • Two Mikes resin cockpit
  • Master's metal pitot tube
  • True Details's resin KM-1 ejection seat
  • Quickboost resin ventral fin
  • Quickboost resin control stick
  • Quickboos resin FODs

 

Decals are a mix from the kit, HpH conversion set and Linden Hill's decal sheet.

Colors are a mix of Gunze, Tamiya and AK Real Colors acrylics.

 

Enjoy the pictures.
