detail will be interesting, as this is basically 'secret' - without too many details... should be good against a Kinetic Su-33 and GWM Su-35

I think the main issue remains the intenal bays, as they are still classified and there isn't any good photos showing them, so that even the new Zvezda 1/72 model doesn't have them. Thus, I fear that both the Zvezda and Kitty Hawk will be soon obsete and will be replaced by a 'service version' of the Su-57 when the first Felons ordered by Russian governement will roll out from the production line and more details will be available. At the point I'm pretty sure that Zvezda will release a 'new' 1/48 kit for the Su-57, probably updating the parts of this one (changing one or more sprue).

Zvezda were the first to produce an accurate T-14 Armata, so let's see what they can do with this one...

I wonder what would be the most correct MRPaint colours for the two digital camo versions of this kit?

Uh... The kit is not 1:48 anymore? What happened?

I am not sure why there is even a question. The box clearly has 1/48 marked on it. And the instructions has the kit number and also says 1/48.

Finally a 1:48 scale model. Was there ever one from other kit makers? Although I don't fancy stealth jets, I really hope this isn't going to be some $100 kit. I wouldn' t think so, but a lot of new 1:48 kits from other brands seems so expensive imo.

I've only built some of Zvezda's 1:144 kits, but they go together nice. In fact I already have approval from the wife to buy this kit whatever price it comes out. She knows I want it that bad 🙂 The Sea Vixen and Cessna O-2 are also on this pre-approved list.

Nice, always good to have the bosses approval! I have tried a different tactic on mine, so far, I think it's working too. Instead of being in charge of the budget this month, I gave her free reign to do it herself. Within three days, she said "I finally understand why you are always stressed", and the guilt of having the control, means she is much more willing to spend on me, than herself, because she feels greedy????

Two kits and three tool packs later, and I am all smiles without the stress! Until next month, when I have to control the budget again☹️.....
