Ilyushin IL-28 and Harbin H-5 Beagle
« on: June 22, 2016, 08:41:41 AM »
Using Alex's great profiles:



I'd like to put a new nose on the IL-28/H-5. I know there is the Bilek kit but it I am not willing to pay Ebay prices. I trial fitted a 1/100 Caravelle and 1/72 B-57/Canberra nose but they are too wide. Has anyone else looked a what could be used?

I am giving up listing them. They all end up on the shelf of procrastination anyways.

I wonder...replace those engines with something like a 3-poster lift engine so as to create a STOVL Beagle.

Twin-tailfin à la B-25 and give the tailgunner an ejection seat?
Forget about his bow and arrows- why wait until that sparrow has done his deed when I can just bury him right now 'cause I'm sick and tired of hearing why he wants to have his way with the cock robin!?

Another idea would be a carrier based Il-28K with folding wings etc - kind of like a A-3 Skywarrior counterpart.
