Album info

Talk about ugly planes, the Russian ones are lovely compared to this one. This is one of the ugliest, most strange and strange planes I've ever seen. No wonder it couldn't fly (2 out of 3 crashed during their first flight) and was cancelled.
About the kit: Beautiful and highly detailed kit with photoetch and canopy& wheel mask. It is a short run kit, one of the best of its kind but has some typical problems: lots of flash and impurities in tiny corners. The plastic of the landing gear is not very rigid, therefore the wheel look so bent due to the weight of the plane. I would give a 7.5/10 points.
