Poland available in 1/48 and
1/72 scale covers the Mig-29M (

few years this squadron has been
paintings its aircraft with tail and

Eachj aircraft has a picture

These sheet offers a perfect solution
to building a Mig-29 with a veryattractive scheme though I would
have to build two to show off that
full colour bage and a UM with the
low viz version. Until a few weeks
ago there was a small fly in the
ointment as for both scales you really
need the Polish Mig-29 upgrade
set that Attack Squadron produced
(72100/48050) but this manufacturer
had ceased production of its range.
Fortunately we heard as this issue
went to the press that the mouldings
have been sold on and should be
reissued at some point in the near
future by SBS Models of Hungary
along with the rest of the range..

spoiling the look of your model.
