1/144 Lockheed SR-75 and Xian Y-20 Kunpeg - Anigrand


1/144 Lockheed S-75 and Xian Y-20 Kunpeg - Anigrand
Anigrand recent announcements:

 Lockheed SR-75 "Penetrator" August 2015
An odd choice, seems to be based on Testors Kit from the 90s?
It could have some interesting bonus items?

 Xian Y-20 Kunpeg -September 2015
This time a real development likened to a Chinese C-17?

1/144 "Black Ribbon" J-20 PLAAF - Trumpeter



1/144 "Black Ribbon" J-20 PLAAF - Trumpeter
Yes, I know. Another J-20, this time from Trumpeter.
To be honest, you can't blame a Chinese manufacturer issuing kits of these new Chinese Jets. The domestic Chinese market for these items must be comparable for the Japanese obsession with JSDF and the Brits with the need for V-Bombers and TSR-2s!   I can't determine if "Black Ribbon" is another name for the J-20, or Trumpeters Kit Range?

To be fair, this was highlighted back in August on KG144 Blog (seems like so long ago) and appears due for release now on 16th November 2012.

Other 1/144 J-20 on KG144 Blog:

I am not sure if the "Black Ribbon" is a variant on the "Mighty Dragon" etc type names?
So here you go:
145.7 mm Length
90.7mm Width
50 parts + Decal
Scaled down from the Trumpeter 1/72 version.
