Let Let Let – Warplanes

Darko Mladenovic I am 33 years old and live in Belgrade, Serbia. I've been modeling for about 15 years, on and off. While I'm happy to build anything, my interests lie primarily in 1/48 scale aircraft. I concentrate on WW2 subjects, although I'm also interested in WW1, early Jet Age and commercial aviation. Since my early days I have build over 150 models but also had a break for about 7 years without modeling. Before my break I was attending all the modeling contests in Serbia and won a quiet few prizes, I was also a referee on modeling competitions in Serbia. Currently I am working on my diploma at the Faculty of Transport and Traffic Engineering at the University of Belgrade at the department of Air Transport and Traffic Engineering.

During the Second World War, German designers were developing projects well beyond their time. Some magnificent machines even entered the service but many of them remained in various phases of developing from drawings to prototypes. That warbirds are what we call today Luftwaffe 1946 projects.

The MiG-23’s predecessor, the MiG-21 (NATO reporting name ‘Fishbed’), was fast and agile, but limited in its operational capabilities by its primitive radar, short range, and limited weapons load (restricted in some aircraft to a pair of short-range air-to-air missiles). The MiG-23 was to be a heavier, more powerful machine designed to remedy these deficiencies, [...]
