Title: Yakovlev Yak-7T
Post by: Jicehem on November 16, 2012, 08:08:16 AM
Hi, everybody,  :-salut :-salut :-salut

Here you see the ICM kit of the Yak-7T in the markings of René Challe's plane at the Normandie-Niémen regiment (GC 3 fot the French Air Force)
The kit has been easy to build and looks good. I built it out of the box, in August 2001.

Thank you for your good comments.
I've been told by Joseph Risso (†) that his Yak-9T-37 was "silver 21", not white.

Hi mate,

I've been also told, not by Risso but another member of N-N Régiment, that the red star was sometimes outlined in silver... What do you think about that ?

I read about that in one color study by one Soviet researcher, can not remember the name in the moment. So this might be the fact!

A very nice Yak, my friend!

Also thank you for the photos and further information on "Silver 21". I recently (cannot remember the source, either) read about silver outline on the star.
