Here's a few more I sifted out of my collection:

First up is this Let 410 Turbolet in the standard high vis Czech air force scheme for VIP hopping. I've seen variations of it on Tupolev 154s, Canadair Challengers, Yakovlev 40s and at least one Mi-8 Hip.


Slovak AF MiG-29 prior to the new digicam scheme they now have.


Antonov's own AN-124 Ruslan


Here is a Polish PZL somethingorother



Ukrainian AF Illyushin IL-76


More Czech AF stuff, strting with an Antonov AN-26


Zlin 142 trainer with delussions of grandeur under it's wingtips



Mil Mi-171 Hip and PZL W-3 Sokol

Let's play "Spot the Hungarian!"

A bit of variety among former Warsaw pact helicopters here. From the left are: Croatian Mi-171, Slovak Mi-17, Czech Mi-171, Hungarian Mi-24 and Czech Mi-35

But enough of the dull stuff, let's get a bit flashy!

Hungary.....








Czech Republic.....
This scheme comemorates the 40th anniversary of the L-39 Albatross' maiden flight




This W-3 Sokol is in a decidedly non standard SAR scheme by Czech AF standards


This AN-26 tail is done up to mark the 90th anniversary of the establishment of the Czechoslovak AF



Marking 10,000 flying hours in the L-159 ALCA

Ground stuff


T-72s






T-80U and a T-72, T-64, and T-62 upgraded T-80U Armor (I planned on making a 1/35 T-62, and T-72 with T-80u Armor as a What if but now i can make an "accurate" model of each!)

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

First, a cute L-29 :wub:



Second, a screamin' -29 :wacko:













Cant forget the transport aircraft either:



And finally a few -23 closeups:



















These 2 are made in the DDR, but their use is not exactly patriotic... (only 2 examples of many machines that DDR citizens used to escape into Denmark)
