Gim-14 Mach 2+ Fighter
« on: May 02, 2017, 05:34:06 AM »
After getting a positive review for their Gim-12 fighter by the Committee of State Sanctioned Modelling, Alternative History and Tractor Carburetor Production, the Gimyarovsckaya  brothers were invited to propose a fighter which must shoot down all Mach 2+ bombers coming from those corrupt capitalist war mongers countries. The project was assigned the code name: Трамваи над сталинградом

As always, the Gimyarovsckaya  brothers start all their projects with their best design engineer, "Svetlana Stolichnaya". So off they to go their local pub to lubricate the brain cells. Unknown to them, Bothan spies also frequent the same pub,  Летающий петух. After some borscht and 3 or 4 bottles of Stolichnaya, they tend to get a bit loud. The Bothans then learned of the Gimyarovsckaya  brothers participation. Faster than you can say "It's a Trap", they sent in a team and took these crude pictures of the Gim-14 mockup. It is still in an early design phase so there maybe additional design changes.

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

Comrade Gimperkolov! Again we of The Committee of State Sanctioned Modelling, Alternative History and Tractor Carburettor Production are in awe of the genius and dedication of your design bureau.  This design is sure to strike terror into those enemies of the state foolish enough to challenge the peaceful peoples of our great nation!

I see that your latest submission has drawn the curiosity of the Subcommittee for Decal Solution Quality Control and Tire Pressure Regulating of The Committee of State Sanctioned Modelling, Alternative History and Tractor Carburettor Production:



Вперед в будущее!

That's such an excellent mod to the famous EE Lightning and certainly gives it a Soviet flavor!

Those canards are some outstanding outside the box thinking!
