First Look
Alright you fans of Soviet & Russian military aviation, Linden Hill has released another nice set of markings, this time covering a selection of subjects from the Kazakhstan Air Force. These have some really nice color schemes to provide alternatives for your next MiG or Sukhoi project. The subjects included in this set are:
- Su-27M2, Bort 01
- Su-27S, Bort 02
- Su-27M2, Bort 03
- Su-27S, Bort 04
- Su-27S, Bort 05
- Su-27M2, Bort 10
- Su-27UB, Bort 51
- Su-27UBM2, Bort 53
- MiG-23UB, Bort 64
- MiG-27D, Bort 30
- MiG-27D, Bort 36
- MiG-27D, Bort 44
The instructions provide good color and paint information ro replicate these various color patterns.
You might look at this kit list and wonder why some of these subjects are here. The Su-27M2 and Su-27S can be built out of the Trumpeter 1/32 Su-27 Flanker B kit while the Su-27UB and UBM2 can be built out of the Trumpeter 1/32 Su-27UB kit. So far, Trumpeter hasn't tackled the two-seat Flogger nor the MiG-27, but I am still happy to see these as I have the LEM 1/32 MiG-27M kit that needed some nice markings options.

My sincere thanks to Linden Hill Decals for this review sample!
