Ukrainian MiG-29 & SU-27 aftermarket Help


Aviacom

Recommended Posts

Hi,

On my wish list to build this year, are a Ukrainian MiG-29 and SU-29.

 

So, that said, I’m looking at the Trumpeter MiG-29 (Which one for a Ukrainian machine??), and the Trumpeter SU-27.

 

My question is, what’s the best aftermarket out there for these two kits as I really want to go to town on them?!!!!

 

Has anyone got or used the Cold War Studio Resin Cockpit for the MiG-29?
Thanks in advance.

For the Trumpeter MiG-29s, the Cold War Studio cockpits are nice, but I just go with a Quickboost seat.  Look to Zactomodels for exhausts, better chaff dispensers, wheels, and corrected radome.  Also, Zactomodels pylons and missiles.

Zactomodels also for Su-27 stuff.

Also Aires makes Su-27 stuff, including exhausts, wheel wells, and cockpits.

What Dave says.

The CWS stuff for the Mig-29 is incredibly detailed, very accurate but there is a lot of work in the cockpit and seat. They do look quite amazing when finished.

All the Zacto stuff is outstanding For both kits if you can find one the most important mod to the Flanker is the windscreen/canopy. Its the single biggest issue the curved edge in side view which is visually very obvious.

The SU-27UB and other two seaters have a far better looking front windscreen you can swap out. They never fixed the single seater.

A radome/nose replacement is needed as well.

Aires exhausts are bit small but look great.

ResKit just released their version, I have them on order, will share more information when they arrive. Also NorthStar models produces these nozzles but they're out of stock most of the time.
