MiG-27 ''Bliznets Khvost''

27.9k SteadfastContracting  7.8 years ago

A plane fashioned to look like it's from somewhere in between 1950-1970. I wanted to do something kinda Russian for a change. I even looked up a Russian name for it.

HISTORY/BACKSTORY-
-When the De Havilland Vampire was introduced, the Russian government felt an aircraft of equal or greater caliber and issued a nationwide declaration that the best aircraft to match the Vampire would receive a large government grant and enough land and money to retire and live on for the rest of their life. After a few months of going through needy citizen's letters of fake designs, they found the MiG-27. The "Bliznets Khvost" (twin tails) jet. It was conceived to be easiler converted for any role that needed filling. It could be used as a stable ground assault platform, or an agile fighter.

FINAL NOTES-

    @SteadfastContracting No problem! I enjoy it very much! It looks very USSR-ish in my opinion. I think it could actually exist in a parallel universe : )

    @SteadfastContracting yep, just get rid of current engines, install one or two J50 with x2 power, change armament and make it as successor. But I recomend you to try something new. Example: how about Sea Vixen

    Would this pass the test if I made some changes and made it as a successor?
    I can take out the Blasto BFE 150 if needed and the other engines are just Blasto J15 engines scaled down to fit inside their spots.
    @deusalgor
    Sorry to bug, but I was just wondering.

    Sorry, I was trying for a Russian plane with a Russian name. While searching what "twin tails" meant in Russian, I did find a plane called something like "Twin Tail" so I thought it'd be fine.

    Name makes no sense in Russian - nobody would call it like that, but that's okay, you don't know the language
