That's nice too, but I prefer the Lavochkin La-5 and Polikarpov I-16!

TPBM agrees?

I don't actually..I know the AFC had 6 Polikarpov I-16s (four since sold), and a yak-3, but I don't know if anyone has or had an LA-5 at all...

TPBM does know where you can find one...

TPBM likes it's opponent, the Mig-15.

Nope....not yet, sorry.

Will be some Mig's, Sukhoi's etc later on....cold war aircraft though.

TPBM has a soft spot for the Soviet airforce....

Certain types I like, from different eras...did think about modelling the Russian helicopters at one time too. (Might still do a Mil Mi-8 and 24 in Hungarian colours eventually, as I've seen them 'in the flesh' here)

TPBM would love to see a real Mi 24 'Hind' too...
