MiG E-152M

Impressive Box Art.



Painting guide.



Fuselage sprue.



Nosecone/cockpit, nosewheel bay and belly insert.



Wings (with alternate wingtips), fin and tailplanes.



Wheels, jetpipes and canards etc. Note the alternate wingtip missile launch rails.



K-80 missiles - and centreline drop tank.



Ejection seat, canopy & HUD - plus the self-adhesive masks for canopy, wheel hubs and various aerials.



Etched brass and decals.



Nose wheel bay parts.



Assembled nose wheel bay and one mainwheel bay - parts on the right.



The nine-part ejection seat......



.... builds into a superb replica of the real thing.



Combined nosecone/cockpit with nose wheel bay fitted in place.
Note the sidewall decals, rudder pedals and control column - with the rear bulkhead attached.



Rear cockpit bulkhead removed and attached to starboard fuselage to get a better fit.



Instrument panel decal.



Component parts for the jetpipe.



The nosecone/cockpit/nosewheel bay sub-assembly 'squeezed' into place after a lot of fettling - the same for the finished jetpipe.

I have added plastic card tabs to aid fitment of the lower fuselage panel.



Fuselage halves together - it needed lots of work to get them to join - especially around the nose section.

Wings and fin assembled - note the join running right through the rudder.



Painted ejection seat - with etched seatbelts.

Finished Model

Dummy missile on port wing - test missile on starboard.



The decal sheet includes a host of stencil data.



Three different wingtip options are included - plus you can leave off the canard foreplanes.



Fully detailed cockpit and ejection seat - plus Head-Up-Display (HUD).



The centreline drop tank is an option.



Looking like a MiG-21 on steroids.....









Test (Stbd) and Dummy (Port) missiles.



Self-adhesive masks are supplied for the circular and leading-edge dielectric panels - as well as the wheel hubs.



Colour is overall light grey.



Note the HUD.



My collection of 'BiG MiGs' - E-150, E-152A, E-152M



All these prototypes led, eventually, to the.....



MiG-25 'Foxbat'.
