Tupolev Tu-29 “Moose”

7,395 OC3LOT1142  6.5 years ago

The Tupolev Tu-29 (NATO designation Moose) is a medum bomber built for the soviet military in 1951. But because of the versatility of the airframe, and the lifting weight, it was modified multiple times before its retirement in 1991. You could say it died with the Soviet Union. Nonetheless, a few survived and can be seen at airshows in Russia, or in air museums across the country.

This aircraft is very fun to fly, has an incredibly low part count, some okay detailing, and a concealed bomb bay (my first attempt). As always it’s mobile friendly. ENJOY!

    Sorry, but I don’t agree. I think it doesn’t end that abruptly @InternationalAircraftCompany

    When you make the tail on a plane, try not to end it so abruptly. Look at some of my (or anyone else’s) planes to see what I mean.
