Scale references & construction notes
Shape references: US Army Hind recognition profile ↗ · Indian Navy MiG-29K photograph ↗. Cross-sections are inferred modelling choices; these are not verified production blueprints.
MiG-29K: nominal 17.3 m length and 11.99 m span. Mi-24: 17.5 m fuselage and 17.3 m rotor diameter. Small shapes, heights and joints are simplified for paper construction; these are original craft patterns, not aircraft blueprints. Rotor diameter is the swept circle, not the distance between two blade tips.
