There's been some fantastic work over the past few weeks, keep it coming!

I haven't posted much up lately, but I've had a go at a rare aircraft using nighthunter's 737-200.

Indonesian Air Force (TNI-AU) Boeing 737-2X9 Surveiller MPA, of which there were only 3 built:

7301, 7302 and 7303 are part of Skadron Udara 5 'Putri Duyung', known as the Black Mermaids in English and are based at Hasanduddin Airport. In case you're wondering, the big block found at the rear of the fuselage, on both sides, is a 'Side Looking Airborne Modular Multi-Mission Radar (SLAMMR)', allowing the aircraft to detect and track small ships up to 100NM away.

Introduced only a few months before it's successor, the A5N, the A4N saw active use with only one unit of the IJAAF and on 3 IJN carriers, Hosho, Kaga, and Ryujo.

As on each monday, below are the generics from the "Polish Wings" thread:

http://www.shipbucket.com/forums/viewto ... 441#p84441

Btw. comments and feedback in that thread are VERY welcome and appreciated. ;)

On a note: I'm not supplying here a generic drawing of Lisunov Li-2, which I derived from Caddaric79's Douglas DC-3/C-47 (changed engines, parts of tail and some other details), but if somebody will specifically need it, I can send it or post it here.

Note: Although I'm supplying these generics for You to use (that is: make Your own, historical or AU, paint schemes), I would like to ask You to abstain for a while from doing it with Languedoc, as I already have some WIP's of it.

Are you sure about the Po-2 cropduster config? Most cropduster conversions/variants have the front cockpit faired over because that's where the chem hopper goes. Plus I don't see any spraying attachments (which should be prominent enough to be very visible at this scale). Right now it doesn't look like it's ready to spray much of anything.

EDIT: I see the sprayers but I don't see much of a chem hopper.

@klagldsf
Yes, I am sure. :roll:
If You look closely at open-cabin versions of Po-2, You'll see that there are essentially 3 configurations:
-two cabins next to each other (for example: standard U-2),
-three cabins next to each other, with middle one very much squeezed inbetween (for example: Po-2SP),
-two cabins at some distance apart (for example: Po-2AP, CSS-13 agrolotniczy) - chem hopper is between cabins. Sometimes indeed one of the cabins was "closed shut" to allow the hopper be enlarged, but that's just alternative.
