    Deino will love this! 😀

    Also scanned from “Aviation World” by Matuoluola.

    The original J-10 swingwing!

    Funny … it’s an interesting combination of a Mirage 2000 in 1/48 and a F-111 in 1/72 ! 😀

    There are a couple of side view drawings of proposed naval MiG-23’s on my ‘Russian Carrier development’ page at :- http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/flankers_pages/russian_carriers.html

    Also included are drawings of the Beriev P-42 (S-3 lookalike) and Yak-44 (E-3 lookalike).

    Thanks Ken for Your link, but I knew it … what was new to me is that I never knew of a proposed naval-MiG-27 !! :confused:

    Wow !!

    Those photos are really interesting Ken, how come no-one has commented on them ??

    Dunno – maybe theyre too busy talking about the RCS on a Tu-160?

    From the underwhelming response, I guess that photos of a Soviet ELINT An-74 are of no interest to anyone.

    Ken

    Sorry Ken … They ARE very interesting and I was thinking about that old Toko-kit too ! :diablo:

    If I remember right I think I have one left very deep in my collection …. are You intersted ??

    Thanks for the picture! I haven’t seen that one before. It looks to be the same model.

    You’re as well informed as anyone on these projects, Deino. Do you think it might be a version of the J-9, they were testimg out?

    Could be … but regarding the straighter wing it seems for my opinion more related to another project …. more useful for to Air-to-Ground / attack … maybe another Q-x program ! 😉

    Do You think this is the same project ???

    Well…

    unless the inscriptions are by the mighty Draken himself;
    in which case, once again my sincerest apoligies; if otherwise, my babblefish
    points to tells me it’s Mirage2000-like wind tunnel speciment.

    I thought too that this seems to show a Mirage 2000 or at least Mirage III-type fighter …. but if You take a look at the wings it’s exactly the same model !

    Can You help me translating Your attachment, PLEASE ??

    [The [B]black paint [/B] might be a dead give away:
    Possibly, the craft might be an unmanned EP-3 and/or high altitude
    U2-like inteligence gathering apparatus

    I don’t think so …. somparing this picture with onotherone I found from the same project it looks more like a fighter/striker (Air-to-Ground-attack) – maybe another Q-x-project or study – or a trainer ….or just a model to test a conceptual configuration !
