AIRCRAFT - Russian Transport Aircraft










As always after Joy of Six there seems to a period of increased activity on the 6mm CWC front. This year has been no exception, especially allied with the excellent work being undertaken by fellow Cold War Commander Richard C http://thelandofcounterpane.blogspot.com/2023/07/6mm-terrain-progress.html?m=1

So for a while I have been scouring the t'interweb for suitable Russian transport aircraft to use for VDV airborne drops or troop transport for our CWC games. I managed to get hold of a few Eastern Express 1/288 kits in various states of repair. A couple were still in the box but some had been a bit neglected and needed a bit of work. I picked up two An-30 and two An-72 but all were damaged in some way or another but I could build one good model of each out of them. I'll look to scratch build some bits at a later date to use the remaining two. Also had three An-32 kits in good shape. 

So after painting and building new flight stands with magnets I have a flight of 5 aircraft that can be used on table.
