+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted February 10, 2010 Author Posted February 10, 2010 So I have now some specific details on my WIP scedule Su-25 Basic version Su-25K Su-25UB Su-25UBK Su-25UTG Su-25BM Su-25T Su-25TM Su-25KM Su-25U Su-25M1 Su-33UB Hope those are enough Su`s for you Frogfoot lovers Quote
Uhu Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 What's this plane? The canopy looks like belonging to a side-by-side seated cockpit - do you build a Su-34 Fullback?! I promise that I will download it ASAP, when it's finished... :-)) I'm asking 'cause i did not see a mention of such a WIP in this thread... Greets, Uhu Quote
MiG Master Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 The Su-33UB is a naval version of the Su-34. It's designed to be a trainer for the single-seat Su-33 but can also carry out strike and air defense missions. The main spotting differences are the shortened tail boom and the more conical nosecone (as opposed to the Su-34's "platypus" nose). Scroll down about 3/4 down the page to see pictures: http://www.ausairpow...-Flanker-D.html Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted February 11, 2010 Author Posted February 11, 2010 MiG Master is right, this thread is a bit old, but I`m still working on it and it will be released in the same quality as you can see it here in the WIP pics still have some more babys I`m playing with but all needs some time Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted February 15, 2010 Author Posted February 15, 2010 Have to update my WIP list something for the MiG fans Quote
Svetlin Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Hi, here is in short what I have read about the new MiG-29K/KUB, hope that answers part of your questions: 1. The new K and KUB will have close to 100% identical fuselage, wings, etc. Basicly the K will be the same in outer view as the KUB, only the back seat removed and replaced with other equipment or fuel to keep the balance of the aircraft. Reason could well be economy from development and production costs. 2. MiG-29M/M2/K/KUB and MiG-35 form a new family of aircraft with identical airframe. 3. Neither of the above will have the typical MiG-29A/C/UB air intakes on top of the fuselage and moving covers inside the intakes. These are replaced with nets, just like on the Su-27/30/33, thus saving weight and giving free space for more fuel and equipment. Considering that the K and KUB will operate mostly on board aircraft carriers, whose flight decks are always carefully swept from trash and dangerous objects, there seems to be no practical need to have the old system with moving covers and additional intakes.

+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted February 16, 2010 Author Posted February 16, 2010 1 and 2 I wasn`t sure, but if that`s right we can have a 35 too. there are some minor differences between those two birds.. I have now some very good close pics from the KUB as reference, thx Quote
+ghostrider883 Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 2. MiG-29M/M2/K/KUB and MiG-35 form a new family of aircraft with identical airframe. There certainly was a single seat MiG-35 with canopy & cockpit similar to single seat MiG-29A/S. Quote
Svetlin Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Yes, it could be so, but I do not remember seeing a picture of it. I suppose the single-seater you refer to, could be an early prototype or a test-bed, based on the 1990s MiG-29M or K airframe, quite like the MiG-29OVT. My main source of information at the moment is http://paralay.com/ They make regular updates, so I hope the information there is up-to-date and correct. Regards, Svetlin Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted February 16, 2010 Author Posted February 16, 2010 I will first model the 29KUB than we can look further .. Quote

+ghostrider883 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) The Su-25 & MiG-29K looks great. The Navy's official MiG-29K induction is slated to be t'rrow. . Edited February 18, 2010 by ghostrider883 Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted February 18, 2010 Author Posted February 18, 2010 The slats can be easil deactivated, but the 35 has some ;-) Quote
+ghostrider883 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Blackbird, please check for decal bleed on the nose in the twin seater Frogfoot. Quote
PGC Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Su-25 & MiG-29KUB... Woaww !! Really impressive ! A lit bit "too modern planes for me" but really impressive, Martin ! Quote
+76.IAP-Blackbird Posted February 18, 2010 Author Posted February 18, 2010 I know about the decal bleed, it`s cause there are still some parts mapped .. will redo the whole plane so bleeding will disapear I think .. thanks guys for your coments! All critic is welcomed Quote
+ghostrider883 Posted February 19, 2010 Posted February 19, 2010 Didn't decal bleed in a model involve something about "export with/without decals" option in 3Dsmax? Quote
