A topic for all your Su-24 Fencer ideas.
How about an operational version in a layout similar (the wings were a tad smaller) to the first prototype?

This way, you could nick the wings from a 1/48 Su-15 and put them on a 1/72 Su-24.

Presumably the operational version would not have the lift engines of the first prototype? That could get interesting, especially if you used the wings from a Flagon-F or Flagon-G.

Read that, Greg, and some really nice stuff in it. Know what I'm going to do w a few of my Trumpy 72nd Fencers. Got a few just for some of the stores in them and was wondering what to do w the ac's ; )

Storm Shadow on the wing pylon?

Bingo!

I thought I had enough Fencers in my collection... now images like that tempt me further. The cross over of stores is really interesting.

If true, also clever that UA is using otherwise under-utilised Su-24MR recce types as their Storm Shadow platform :smiley:

Look at the pair on this guy:

I wonder what a Fencer would look like with a belly full of Brimstones on those triple launchers the RAF Tornados carried them with.
