Hey Spinners, have you given thought at doing up a Tu-95 in SAC markings as a stand-in Douglas 1211J?

 

Not really. I think the Tu-95 is much more graceful looking and the tail on the Douglas 1211J just looks so wrong.

This is just a concept Screenshot for something that may or may not be a project.

Hm, you'll have to tell us more if we are to understand the teaser. ;) Well, at least I am not perfectly familiar with Finish history...

 

This is the What If Section. And rest assured, when I am done with the basic story outline you will know about it. Above is merely a placeholder, as I hope my resident Italian of a Skinner might do a better job with a fictional skin for a fictional story :D

1979:In an attempt to give the aging MiG-19 airframes a new lease of life, a modest modernization program is launched by Cuba in co-operation with the MiG design bureau, based on the MiG-19PT prototype and the experience gained by the MiG-17AS multirole fighter in Cuban service. DAFAAR personnel, recognizing the MiG-21s problem in a subsonic, low altitude dogfights, turn to the readily available MiG-19 which excels in these parameters. The outboard IRM pylons are complemented by the older inboard pylons, and these are wired to carry more modern IR missiles like the new R-60 dogfight missile, giving the previously guns-only interceptor an ability to carry six modern IRMs. Tasked with point defence of Cubas airbases to allow high speed and altitude interceptors like the MiG-23 and 21 to scramble, these uprated MiG-19s give any low level fighter bombers a run for their money!
