I just had an Idea.

Take your favourite aircraft, armour or ship subject and make a soviet copy of it!

It could be as simple as applying soviet stars and camo or as major as new engines etc.

It can be from any time period that Soviet Empire exisited and it can be any non soviet subject.

I know that some western hardware was operated by the Soviet Union before and during WWII but the sprit of the GB is that you would picking something that wasn't ever used or reverse engineered in real life. It is the What If website after al. ;D

For exmple I am thinking of making a Soviet copy of B-36.

See below for one I did earlier.

Bigger tires, dirty aluminum, 'odd rods', yep, that would be simple for a lot of aircraft, might have a crack at this one meself!

Totally against it right ;D.  Maybe a Soviet YF-17 as the MiG-29?

But blend the chines into the wings, thus it will become a whole new aircraft! And the tail fins from a Mig-29 :thumbsup:

How about a soviet b-17 or soviet liberator?

Soviet copies of the avenger, wildcat and corsair for thier copied fleet carriers. :ph34r:

A soviet copy of the SR-71. I mean it's only right that the soviets return the favour and do high speed recon flights over the US :wacko: ;D

I have an A-10 that has been sitting there half constructed maybe I should sovetise that. Add different engines and relace the main gun with something more simple.

The ideas are endless.

If this gets of the ground I would be happy to moderate this one.

I have an old 80's book that has that 3 view! Marvelous job! I would go for it...the only question for me would be how many entries.
