As far as I know, made by Lupa and ARD had a few of them for sale at Farnborough today at £149 each.

Rui,

That's a smart looking model. Looking at what you having been buying recently, you seem to have started to move into the Russian types. Are you leaving the retro classics behind or is this Russia phase just an new bolt on to your collection?

Lovely isnt she!? And quite heavy, indeed.Like solid resin for the fuselage,
feels great to hold a heavy model, I think !Just a unique piece that I thought would
go nice into my (varied) collection
will have to do some sunny pictures though

Rui,

That's so much for the post. I finally have received mine on Friday. Very please it the model. Great detail and was a bargain too. Only two left at ARD but I don't think they will last too long. I have a feeling this model was tampo-printed instead of decals.

Thanks once again.

Sukhoi went all out with the prototype scheme. Gives this eco-jet lots of attitude. Btw: I believe one crashed recently into a mountain with no survivors. Apparently the pilots were given clearance down to 6000' in terrain that exceeded 10.000'. Sad news for this sharp newcomer.

It's a 'brawl' centered around two individuals tearing each others hair out, isn't it?
