"Fencer" was a bit of a scare-word to the West/NATO in the 1970s,just as "Foxbat" was in the 60s,but later found to not be as formidable as once thought.

I like the designs of few Sukhoi's, but somehow I don't like Su-24. It looks like a knock-off of F-111...

hey man,

lovely jet you got there but you gotta pay attention to details such as the white parts you painted there !
use masking tapes next time for more accurate lines .
But i got a question.

how did you make that runway/airfield ?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

TomCatDriver In reply to ikarus-tm [2008-03-26 17:48:26 +0000 UTC]

it was masked. the idea was to accurately duplicate the unusual wavy-edged camo pattern used on some Fencers for overwater missions.

So You have the same problem like we with our 2 parties: PiS ("Prawo i SprawiedliwoΕ›Δ‡" = Law & Justice) and PO ("Platforma Obywatelska"= the Citizen's Platform). The current Polish president stems from PiS and the Prime Minister is the member of PO - they and their supporters keep quarreling since 2005...
