This aircraft was captured in the Czechoslovak army during the war in 1989, tested in 1990 by 30.bilp /attack wing/ in Pardubice, in camo as Czech Su25

That last link works, looks good!  Tell us more about this war 1989!
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.

War in November 1989 between NATO and Czechoslovakia, which was supported by a volunteer from the other countries of the Warsaw Pact.
Among the members of the Czech WhatIf SIG is known as the "seven day war". The author is associate Raptor, unfortunately for the translation into English is very extensive.
In agreement with the author of this story, I will try to translate the time part

Thanks Karlik!  Pics are working now! :thumbsup:  I didn't notice the single unpainted fin before, what's the story behind that?

Strangely, I'm getting red crosses, but if I click on them individually, I can get each picture up...... :huh:

Anyway, nice model Karlik, the weathering of the temporary (?) paint scheme is very convincing.  :thumbsup:


Think we should do an L-39 being tested by Boscombe Down as a "captured enemy aircraft" in a similar scheme to the Argentine Pucara they got in '82......... :wacko: ;D

Ah, good the pictures work now.  Nice looking Hog.  The paint job looks like something thrown on quickly over the standard NATO gray scheme.

Good work.
