Was I even close?

If so, the underside of the wings should be painted red and white stripes.
See, I knew it was easy. I'm not a big fan of the 190 but the D model is a nice looking bird. I have a nice model of this aircraft in the cabinet.

Re: Name That Plane

Looks like some kind of Mig. The lines around the canopy kinda give it away.

Re: Name That Plane

Is it a Mikoyan/Gurevich I-224?

Am I close?


Cheers,

Re: Name That Plane

Then it has to be a Mig-7.
(Bet I am right this time Cyberia.)
Quote:
MiG-7/I-220 - The I-220 was a first plane in series (I-220, I-221, I-222, I-224, I-225) of prototypes to develope specialized high-altitude interceptor of advanced design. No high-altitude threat was expected and a MiG-7 (production version) was cancelled.
Do I win a cookie?


Cheers,
Dave
