"Lipetsk Top Guns" - The Aircraft of the Russian Air Force's elite 4. TsBP i PLS

On August 17, 2005 we were very fortunate to be part of a group invited to visit the 4th Center for Combat Application and Air Crew Training of the Russian Air Force at Lipetsk Air Base. Thanks to the base commander, Major General Aleksandr Karchevsky, we were treated to a private air show lasting around two hours. We had complete freedom to photograph what we saw and ended up taking around 600 shots in this short space of time!

This special decal set and booklet package enables you to model a variety of aircraft belonging to this elite unit.

The 1/72 scale version of the set includes markings for the Su-27, Su-27SM, Su-27UB, MiG-29S, MiG-29UB, MiG-31, Su-25, Su-25T, Su-24M2 and Su-24MR. It also includes bonus decals for a Kazakh AF MiG-31, MiG-29, Su-27S or Su-24M and an Uzbek Su-24M.
