COMRADES!



With the development of ever more impressive and advanced fighting aircraft to push back the enemies of the Motherland, Comrades Gurevich and Mikoyan saw the need for a new and better training jet. So, armed with patriotic intent and righteous talent, they began work on a twin-engined, swept-winged trainer with the ability to be used against the Motherland's enemies when the need arose...

Спасибо, товарищ!!

I overindulged on Oleg's Own Backyard Vodka while typing the title - please note the correct NATO name the Imperialists hung on MiG's amazing little machine has now been inserted.

COMRADES!

It is disheartening to see how little comment the construction of the glorious trainer Mothball has inspired. However our comrades in the Anadyr Trainer Jet Aircraft and Vodka Bottle Cap Construction Factory No.38 have been politely advised by Comrade Commissar Felix that progress photographs will be expected tomorrow.

Do not succumb to despair, Comrade Antipodean Zac! Disheartened proletarian designer/constructors are exactly what the capitalist agents provocateurs are hoping for  :o

In any case, complete glorious success is already assured for the MiG-24 Альфа Джет trainer. Still, we thrill in our anticipation of forthcoming images of socialist workers at ... well, work.  :)

COMRADE! I am troubled by your use of this name for glorious trainer Mothball - it appears to be nothing less than a piece of artificial journalism! There is no proof to what you allege! Such obvious mistruths cannot be tolerated! You will apologise for this blatantly fraudulent appellation for the glorious trainer Mothball and the hard work of the men and women of ATJAaVBCF No.38bis*!

*The men and women of ATJAaVBCF No.38 have been relieved of working on glorious trainer Mothball on suspicion of using foreign aircraft blueprints for the fuselage design of glorious trainer Mothball and all duties of construction on glorious trainer Mothball have been assigned to the men and women of ATJAaVBCF No.38bis accordingly.

COMRADE! I used the term Альфа Джет only in the sense that the glorious MiG-24 was the 'first jet' trainer construct by the workers of ATJAaVBCF No.38 (as was). Will you will agree, KiwiZacovitch, that this is a perfectly correct application of 'alternative facts'? "All power to the Soviets!"

COMRADES! Comrade apophenia is quite correct - Comrade Commissar Felix has clarified this point with me and there will be no more speaking of the previous speakings.

Behold the latest imagerygraphics from ATJAaVBCF No.38bis of work on glorious trainer Mothball!


Take note of the finest ejector seats for comfort of pilots, and shock cones of intakes!


See the wonderful vertical tail of glorious trainer Mothball and the lines of the all-new, influenced by nothing, wholly original fuselage!


Witness the amazing swept wings of glorious trainer Mothball, optimised for the highest speeds of any trainer!

I return from the mandated tour of the polystyrene mines and decal printing collectives to find you all have been hard at work, bolstering the defenses of nasha Rodina! (Наша родина)

Sasha, the Third Deputy Assistant Marshall for the Positive Recognition Sub-committee of The Committee of State Sanctioned Modelling, Alternative History and Tractor Carburettor Production, agrees:



Comrade KiwiZacikov! Thank you for the glimpse into the superior work ethic and dedication of the men and women of ATJAaVBCF No.38bis! They are leading the way to the future of World Socialism!

COMRADES!

I have been deputised by the men and women of ATJAaVBCF No.38bis to thank you for your kind words. As Spokesman I can now confirm I can provide further updates tomorrow as I have been given leave to attend glorious aeroshow at Blenheimgrad and will spend tomorrow in the factory itself to supervise.

Comrade LemonJello! The spokesman for ATJAaVBCF No.38bis is torn as to whether to ask for more imagegraphics of your fine comrades as he enjoys them so, or to plead for you to stop posting them lest Comrade Mrs Spokesman see his computer screen! :-[

Comrade!

The Committee of State Sanctioned Modelling, Alternative History and Tractor Carburettor Production knows better than to tempt the wrath of the ultimate power, SWMBO! So for the sake of the ATJAaVBCF No.38bis spokesman, we will limit the appearance of some of our dedicated comrades of the female persuasion in this thread*.



*However, if the spokesman can sneak over to some of the other threads in our glorious group build, he will be able to enjoy the imagegraphics

And watching resident glorious fighter Yak-3M and visitort glorious fighter-racer Yak-3U-2000 "Steadfast" take to the sky and show Soviet supremacy to the aeroshowgoing proleteriat:





The spokesman has been gently reminded by Comrade Commissar Felix to capture and share imagerygraphics of painted glorious trainer Moth tonight after his rostered shift.
