Eduard to Release Absolutely Packed Royal Class, Dual Combo MiG-15

Eduard is gearing up to release a new Royal Class edition, dual combo MiG-15 kit in 1/48 scale.

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 was developed in the late 1940s as a high-altitude interceptor. First flown in 1947 and entering production in 1949, it combined a powerful Klimov turbojet with swept wings, a pressurized cockpit, and an ejection seat, giving it excellent climb and high-altitude performance for its era. Armed with one 37 mm and two 23 mm cannon, the MiG-15 became internationally famous during the Korean War, where it posed a major threat to UN aircraft and met the North American F-86 Sabre in the conflict’s defining jet-versus-jet battles; it was subsequently built in very large numbers and served widely with Soviet-aligned air forces.

The upcoming release (R0026) will include two complete model kits, a set of pre-painted photo-etched parts, OMASK wheel well plugs, two sets of resin wheels, two sets of 3D-printed seats with seatbelts, pre-cut canopy mask, stencil decal sheets (1 set of Russian stencils and 1 set of Czech stencils) and decals with 10 marking options. A 3D-printed 1/16 scale MiG-15bis instrument panel is also included as a special bonus.

MiG-15UTI Project For Sale: “Has 95% of Parts”

A MiG-15UTI / SBLim-2 project has been spotted for sale. The listing states (in part):

Aircraft is a project/parts has 95% of the parts, missing gun bay and head rests, along with a few access panels. Had a flight certificate and was flown back in the early 2000’s. Is currently de-registered. Being sold as a parts airplane so no bill of sale. would be good for a static display or parts. Would be a possible candidate for a restoration but there is corrosion around the canopy frames that would require a massive amount of work, electronic logs are available. Engine ran about 2 years ago. I dry motored the engine recently and it cranks freely. Is currently dis-assembled and can assist in loading for a fee. Stands are not included. Bought it to restore it but purchased another in better condition.

The aircraft is located in Tiffin, Ohio and is currently available for US $20,000. Click here to check out the eBay listing, which includes additional photos and details.
