Title: Soviet MiG-15s in Korea. Photographic evidence ? Post by: Papertiger59 on September 06, 2016, 07:32:30 PM Hi Gentlemen.
I wish to model a bunch of VVS aircraft in China and Korea (MiG-15s, Yak-17 UTI, La-9/11...). MiG-15 pictures in korea are very scarce, as everybody knows. And I need pictures to build a kit. The only MiGs I found, in books or on the web, are : -MiG-15 "67" & "72", 29th GvIAP (Chinese markings) -MiG-15 "125" 176th GvIAP -MiG-15 "823" -MiG-15bis "325" -MiG-15bis "976" 351st IAP -MiG-15bis "546" 351st IAP (Camo, but which one ?) -MiG-15bis "362" 878th IAP (Camo, but which one ?) Today, I found this picture, given as 224 IAP planes, with pilots rushing to their jets, and one is heavily camouflaged. http://lib.rus.ec/i/93/456093/pic_80.jpg (http://lib.rus.ec/i/93/456093/pic_80.jpg) I've got many decal sheets, dealing with the subject, with sooo many camouflaged MiGs, but where are the photographic proofs ? I red many threads on the subject, and if I don't get it wrong, most of the published profiles are from veterans memories, aren't they ? So has anyone photographic evidences of camouflaged ones ? Regards, Chris. Title: Re: Soviet MiG-15s in Korea. Photographic evidence ? Post by: Charlie45 on March 08, 2017, 03:01:00 AM I have seen several photos of Migs in overall bare metal with red markings on the nose and national insignia of NKAF on fuselage. The photo you post is most impresssive! Where did you find it if I may ask?? Only known photo of Korean Mig with lightening bolt. Thank you

I didn't find them any more. This plane could be compatible with the supposed metallic green-dark green-dark blue camo. Can you read the number? |
