Very nice.  I think the radome's support is a little short but apart from that very nice, indeed.

COMRADES!!!!!

Is GLORIOUS day once again in Soviet Union!  Comrade, you have brought to life a marvel of socialist brotherhood engineering.  Now, no running dog Western annoyance aircraft (what they call "fighters") can hide, not with the Sentry-ski defending our borders!!

A tanker of vodka for you and your GLORIOUS OKB!!

On a total side note, I've got one like this in the planning stages, but I doubt it'll look this good.  Great job!   :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

That tanker should be an aerial tanker and, of course, also be Il-86-derived! :thumbsup:

Very nice.  Very nice, indeed.  You turned out a real winnner with this one.  It ought to fool a few JMN's.
