I've built the standard Revell one and its a very nice kit.Doesnt say it in the Revell instructions,but you have the option of opening up large doors in the side of the fuselage.The outlines of the doors are engraved on the inside of the fuselage making them easy to cut out.

Nice kit adrian , you say you had a good look at the one at duxford ,- ive seen the one at cosford and if its the same its really rough round the edges!!! A bit like a corrugated iron shed with wings!!!,, tony

Always loved the Su-27 aircraft ever since i saw the Russian Knights display team at RAF Finningly and RAF St.Athan. Plus the colours look fantastic

I just bought this on ebay. It has a cockpit etched brass fret too. I could really go to town on this with all the aftermarket bits that are around. Has anyone built one of these? Any idea if it comes with the EAPS/SNIPS intake filter or the FOD deflector as shown on the box photo?

 

[Guest]

Never done a floaty thing but as i had a voucher to dispose of thought i would take the plundge! Thought could not go wrong with a Tamiya Kit. Comes with a Japanese Sub too, limited edition set normally retails at quite a bit more but all mine for £7.99

Nice One. I have been after one for a while, but way to silly in the price ticket range!

As for your question. No Idea. lol
