Surface details

Window frames, vents and access panels are printed decoration. Cut only the outer silhouette; score grey facet lines gently.

Joining the shells

Align the underside seams. The front tabs of the next numbered section slide inside the previous section. Dry-fit before adding glue.

Inspect every side

Use Rear to compare tail and engine symmetry, and Underside to check the landing gear. Locate a part below to highlight it in blue.

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.
