does it come with the stand?

-First, I did not know that this was how the later more advanced Chvetsov version looked like: In my mind the boxtop image is more in line with the rounded cowl early version, which looked a lot better...
-Second, that later squarer, thinner lip cowl, damaging enough as it was to the look of the real aircraft, has been exaggerated here to make the model even uglier, and less accurate at the same time: It looks almost like a Breda 65; What where they thinking?

Why make the bad look even worse than it was?

Zvezda made this version, IMHO not the best choice, it mostly has boring green camouflage and later versions are mush prettier.

Are you going to be doing corrections for this version as well as a conversion set?

[quote I saw it in the flesh and I have the mixed feelings. The first of all they chose not the best variant. The lip of the cowl IMHO should be a little bit more rounded and a cowl's opening a little bit smaller. Interior is simplified and not quite correct, wheel wells are not correct either. But on the other hand, there's nothing fatal that can't be corrected, and I doubt that any other company would do this important and pretty plane.
PS By the way, there's a mistake on test assembly. Chin intake has to be shifted forward:

I want to do white 15 of G.F. Sivkov

BTW can I do a Su-2 M-82 by crafting a La-5FN cowl on that Su-2? ... not that I am able to do such things.

I have Khasanov/Gordyukov "Su-2 - blishnii bombardirovtchik". Are there other books you would recommend?

There's no transparent part for the TSS turret in a kit (this turret was used only on late Su-2, and Zvezda made the early one).
