Next stop: Snake Island

Album info
The Ukrainian navy used the Bayraktar TB2 on several occasions for strikes against the occupying Russian forces on Snake Island in 2022. For instance it struck a Tor (SA-15 GAUNTLET) air defence system on May 6. For this one I used Mechanics from Royal Model and a 3D printed Bayraktar TB2 from Germanina Figuren. Unfortunately, the Ukrainian Navy use a three bladed propeller and the kit came with the two bladed Air Force version. So, I claim artistic licence and laziness. It also came without one canard and that's where the idea with a ground crew preparing for next mission came from. Decals was a bit thick, and I used a lot of softener. Also, the Bayraktar could do with more sanding but again, I refer to my laziness. Some tinkering left, but almost done.
