Our Communist supporters in Japan are finally shipping the aircraft complement for the Sovietsky Soyuz. Once they are in hand I will ask that all repost photos of their achievements so they may be placed on the deck of our flagship.

Up the Revolution!

Cool !

My An-2V is COD is finally taking shape, and might actually be finished if I could have gotten some Humbrol 68, or was it 89 ?

And I finally have the pieces in place to do my chopper(s)

Cheers !

This is excellent news comrade Iosef!

I was beginning to wonder if the peoples revolutionary fervour had cooled....clearly socialist thought is alive and well in New Jersey!

Just a little slow  :zzz: ; not enough vodka to lube the gears.  :cheers:

I'm still working on how to replicate a Colt in 1/700. Fear not, the Revolutionary spirit will guide me, somehow, to adding your production to the display.

They just arrived on my doorstep!

Four each of:
MiG 29
Su 27
Su 35
MiG 23  (two with wings straight out, two with wings swept)
MiG 27  (same)
MiG 21  (two are specifically 21C, two are generic)
BTR 80 armoured vehicles  (On-board security? Landing party? Maybe I'll rig up a couple landing craft for the Sovietsky Soyuz.)

Two each of:
MiG 25
MiG 31
S-37 Berkut
Su 15
Su 17
Su 24 (wings back)
Su 25

Already on site are several Ka 27 helos and YaK 38s, MiG 29s and Su 27s, plus some decadent, inferior Western aircraft like the F/A-18, F-14 and Harrier if any such have ended up serving the great Socialist cause.

I'll be ready to load planes aboard once I have photos and have finished my IH-16 carrier-based fighter; should be this weekend. Uncle Joe has some strange ideas about painting the IH-16, but the Naval Aircraft division understands very well the wisdom of the Party leader.

Perhaps they are for Ekranoplans?

Which I believe Skywave just released or is about to release in 1/700...

I still like the idea of landing craft aboard, like the San Giorgios. I'm certain the Italian Reds must have come up with that idea, inspired by their Socialist brethren in the Motherland.  ^_^
