About product

Sukhoi Su-27UB Flanker-C 1:48 — a Kitty Hawk plastic kit

An injection-molded plastic kit of the two-seat Su-27UB in 1:48 scale from the manufacturer Kitty Hawk. The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The Su-27UB is a combat trainer version, so it differs from the single-seat Su-27 in a tandem cockpit for two crew members and in the related modifications of the fuselage and the vertical tail surfaces. The number of parts, the contents of the package and the number of color schemes offered are given by the contents printed on the packaging.

The real subject

The Su-27 is a heavy twin-engine fighter with an integral airframe layout in which the fuselage and the wing blend smoothly into a single lifting body. Power comes from two afterburning jet engines placed in separate nacelles with a central tunnel between them. The aircraft has a long range without drop tanks and a conventional layout with two vertical tail surfaces. The two-seat version, designated Flanker-C in the NATO code, serves to train crews while retaining the combat capability of the basic version. The second cockpit is placed behind the first, raised to give the instructor a view forward.

Building and painting tips

With a large airframe in 1:48 it pays to dry-fit the fuselage halves and the leading sections of the wing in advance, where filling is usually needed. Finish and paint the cockpit and the nose gear bay before you close the fuselage. Glue the engine nacelles and the air intakes so that the inner ducts have no visible seam. Painting fighters of this category rests on several shades of gray-blue with soft transitions, so spray with an airbrush in thin coats and refine the transitions with heavily thinned paint. Lay a gloss clear coat before the decals and a matte one after them. Pick out the panel lines with a thin wash so that they do not vanish on the large surface.

Who the model is for

  • Modelers interested in modern jet fighters
  • Builders of large models in 1:48 scale
  • Anyone interested in two-seat combat trainer versions
  • More experienced modelers who can handle filling larger assemblies

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
