I am very happy to host you, Maćku! Hope you all will enjoy.

Following! Thanks for your kind words, Robert. I'm looking forward to seeing you do this one!

BTW, does any of you, Gentlemen have an idea how a pilot's harness should look like here? I know not much will be seen after closing the fuselage, but I would like to add something verisimile made from masking tape or something like that...

How much weight should be put into her nose to prevent her from tailsitting, what do you think, Gentlemen? 😄

You're too kind, Peter, thank you 😉 Too early to judge adequately IMHO...

Following this one too of course ??
The kit is definitely more detailed than the Sharkit.
But it also looks like not easy to assemble after all.
Curious to see the next steps!

Welcome, Benoit! As usual with MikroMir kits, this one is deceptive - looks simple in the box, but needs some attention. Nevertheless, it goes together fairly easy as far.

That was a creative idea to use that jig 👍
Will you add some kind of launch pad later?
10 August 2021, 08:54

Quite interessing kit - SNCASO Dever. 👍
Nice progress on the build Robert - following....
12 August 2021, 20:41

Robert keeps bending time! That's how he finds the shops still selling these rare kits. 😄
15 October 2021, 19:51

I live in Eastern Europe, these kits arrive here later, Mark 😉
15 October 2021, 20:09

You really chose a very rare subject. Your progress and quality is very good.
16 October 2021, 06:42

At least now I am sure that these will keep the weight of the whole 😉
28 October 2021, 08:45

nice progress - The new legs really looks way better than the flimsy originals - top 👍
28 October 2021, 09:48

The scratch built supporting legs are a massive improvement on the originals. 👍
28 October 2021, 12:02

Now she's got some real nice legs. 😄
Keep up the nice work. 👍 I'm also looking forward to the launch pad. 😉

I can see the finish line (in the distance) now, Bruce 😉

This takes me back to those Jerry Anderson puppet animation shows of Thunderbirds 🙂

While assembling this model I am wondering who would be brave enough to fly the real thing, not mentioning the question of firing such a big rocket projectile from behind one's back in fact...
3 November 2021, 07:46

Something like "He's got a big fat missile up his *beeep*".
Looking good Robert!
3 November 2021, 09:15

you always build the best unique pieces!, I don't know exactly what it is 😅 but i like it very much!
3 November 2021, 18:02

Well said, Simon. Here here! It's looking 'sharp' already, and still more to be added! She's going to be a beauty 🙂
3 November 2021, 18:15

Thank you, Simon 😉 if you take a look at my stash and completed models, you will easily notice that I have a soft spot for such bizarre machines... This one is a 'paper project' that, to the best of my knowledge, was intended as a 'point interceptor' and competed with "Trident":
SNCASO SO.9050 "Trident II" (MikroMir 72-019, 1:72)
which was actually built and flown and is preserved in Le Bourget museum.
3 November 2021, 18:17

I love the prototypes' hall and La Grande Galerie, of course! (which was under reconstruction when I was there last time, unfortunately...)
4 November 2021, 07:33

Thanks, Juergen and Bruce - there is still the big fat missile to be installed 😉
4 November 2021, 08:27

Looks like she is almost ready to launch. Off to the moon! 😄
4 November 2021, 11:41

Thanks. Bruce, you are too kind. I am going to substitute the missile with the more professionally looking one...
8 November 2021, 17:17

I call her finished 😉 Now I have to think over the launch site...
9 November 2021, 07:48

Much better missile Robert! The original drew the eye and looked too toy-like, making the whole model look a little so. The new missile makes the whole model more believable for me. Brilliant! 👍
9 November 2021, 07:56

I'm sorry to say that, but that new missile&pylon set looks just too modern to me, like stolen form a Hornet or Viper 🙁
The original one had that classic comics look (similar to AA-3 Anab btw.)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-8_(missile)
9 November 2021, 08:14

I agree with you, Łukasz, but the pylon was taken from the kit - I only substituted the missile
9 November 2021, 13:08

Finished model looks great 👍 The new missile looks more threatening for a modern viewer. Interesting, that it could carry only one missile.
9 November 2021, 17:20

Thank you very much, S M. There arise few more issues when looking at this project, e.g. how the pilot would enter the cockpit (and leave it after landing...) and how the process of attaching the missile would be executed...
9 November 2021, 17:42

A rather impractical design for several reasons, still a looker though! 👍
Metal goes well with red.
9 November 2021, 18:10

Thank you, WhiteGlint! Perhaps that's why it never left the drawing board 😉
@Łukasz - it is even a more exotic 'fusion-cuisine': French and Chinese, since I borrowed the missile from J-31 Gyrfalcon kit 😉

Album info
The title of this project is a loose translation of the question shouted by my LHS owner when I asked him to order this kit 😄
