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...

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:

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.

There certainly was a single seat MiG-35 with canopy & cockpit similar to single seat MiG-29A/S.

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
