yeah i want one too but everywhere i look online they only have it as a pre-order. i don’t think it is due out until July.

It is already available, mine is on it’s way - and no, it won’t be a russian machine.

Regarding the comment that you’ll need to replicate the seat harnesses if you don’t use the pilots, Step 5 of the instructions shows what looks like cushions with molded in straps to be used if you choose to not use the pilot figures.

I will have mine with Quinta Studios interior decals, so some work will be needed on those cushions

That’s one Bird I’ve wanted for a long time . It’s a “Bad A**” looking beast .
Where did you order it from ?

I sure want one!

@basco, besides the Russians, who else flies these? Or are you planning “what if?” markings & nationality?

As far as I know Egypt also have some and Algeria is at least interested

Yes, Egypt is the user I will consider.
