Cartel museum piece. Yak 28.

[chrisonord]

This is another museum piece pressed back into service by the Cartel, and to be honest, still does the job asked of it admirably. The aircraft has had several upgrades, and is one of 6 believed to be in service with the Cartel. The kit is the A model 1/72nd scale item and wasn't really that bad of a build going off other A models builds I have done. The build is awaiting some weathering, and then it can join the other cartel builds that survived being in storage.

I've got one of those kits myself, I must dig it out......

Yup looks good  The more recent A Model kits are quite good builds. Loads of parts because they have mould size restrictions apparently but get over that and they are ok

I quite fancy doing a mandrake too, as the Cartel don't have any dedicated recon birds, apart from a mig-21 R.

As do I.
However my idea is not longer wings on that just bigger/better engines.

Lovely.  Great result.
I've got 2 of these in the stash plus an A model Yak 38 (which is terrible - i've gone to build it twice and given up both times before I've even started).
I'm waiting for inspiration to strike with the 28s.

I know your pain Zenrat, I have done a few of their kits now, because they make he stuff I am into, and they have brought far too much frustration. Saying that, I am building a Modelsvit kit at the moment, and that is proving to be as bad to build.

Nice one ! Sure looks sleek and modern in that scheme. That's an aero I've always wanted to build. Some day !
