It's been a few decades since I first encountered this strange device, back then as a kit from the "Huma" brand in 1/72. After I discovered the MiniArt Kit in 1/35, I had to take it home with me, and now (after just a few years 🤔aint: ) it's already built!

On the outside, I just added a few service covers and the gun wiring.
Since I didn't like any of the proposed decal options, all markings were created with self-made masks via airbrush.
In order to provide a size comparison to the high-flyer on a (not yet completed) wingette, two Tamiya figures were built by carving and parts from the fundus, which fit well at the foot of the model...
