Yak-38

Briefly on the construction site…
As a prototype, I chose the 83rd yellow aircraft, which was assigned to the TAKR Tbilisi for testing. The construction is almost out of the box, a resin cockpit kit was used from the additions, and a bit of photo etching for sensors, and hoses on the chassis, as well as riveting from Quinta and Embas. It wasn't going to be without problems, but putty and sandpaper are always at hand. Aerial bombs, honestly expropriated from the Su-17 from KX, and a set of special ammunition from Amigo Models were used as a suspension (Well, you never know what they experienced there))).
I found as many as 3 photos of the original, and those are black and white, so we can say that they were painted based on the motives (the "Behemoth" has one scheme, the photo from the museum is different and different every year, the third is in the tundra). It was painted with enamels from Tamiya, varnishes and metallics from Hansa, stained with oil from Khasi, decals from Behemoth.
