This is my M2000D I
built during these last two years. It had been a long process to modify the
original kit and correct all airframe errors. Just to summarize these are
here after a list of modifications:
-
- Aft cockpit
is repositioned and the whole cockpit is scratch built
-
- Air intakes are
modified according to the new aft cockpit position
-
- Exhaust nozzle is scratch
built
-
- Landing gears size modified to comply with the 16.4T gross weight
-
-
Kristal parts are replaced by new vaccue formed ones (windscreens) and thermo
formed in plexiglass for mobile parts
-
- Front part of fuselage is modified to
get closer to the real one shape
-
- Chaff dispenser is scratch built as well

These are the main
modifications. For the finishing, wings, air intakes and fin depth had been
reduced and the whole airframe surface had been polished to be able to ungrave
the model on the paint.
I used Gunze paints,
Microscale varnishes ans SMDS decals.
Enjoy modeling!
