A straight out of the box build except for Tape Belts and the serials and roundels were masked and painted as Trumpeter had them a tad on the fictitious side.

Another Smer/ Airifx/ Mister Craft 1:48 finished as a Ugandan Mig17 F. These are old, clunky, cheap but well engineered kits and this is my third one. No filler involved at all. I did replace the arment with turned brass as the pitot [...]
