My new project is Trumpeter MiG 32 ml, with its many glaring defects corrected with the Aires resin - cockpit plus drive bays and inlet separator plates Zactomodels, very few pieces of kit Eduard exterior and lots of buildings zero!
Drawings scaled-up to 1:32nd from a russian book "MiG 32 ML P MLD" by S. Burdin, published in Minsk, 1994, Pages 21- 28.

Soviet Swing-Wing Fighter/Strike Arcraft", by Yefim Gordon and Keith Dexter, published by Aerofax.
