Title: Mig 23 chaff/flare dispensers
Post by: Bill L2 on Sun 01/20/13 08:16 PM
Tony the chaff/flare dispensers (pair) are located on the upper fuselage of the jet, forward of the vert stabilizer. An addition that was made as a result of loses in afghanistan.

Thanks Tony. With some elbow grease, scribing, and a little hard work you can coax a Mig 23 from the Italeri kit!

Here is my scribing efforts so far...what a pita to do...I traced panels onto thick stock then cut them to the shape to use as my template. A lot faster than laying out tape. Patience is a virtue. If you want to borrow my templates let me know.
