Учтите, что существует ещё Ту-22М2 1/144
Так вот модель тройки сделана из двойки - причем очень небрежно - тупо заменили воздухозаборники
This is the Minicraft kit has a long history. My father bought this kit back in Russia, and did not let me do it until my skills were really good, and then one day he told me to make it. This tooling was developed by Minicraft and Academy, as it says so on the box. This is the same exact kit as the 1/144 Tu-22M2, except the nose and the intakes are different. It comes with rescribed panel lines, average detail, and white plastic. The wheel bays have no detail, landing gear has barely are detail, and the cockpit has some chairs and that's it. There are many things needed to be done to make it an actual M3, and not an M2 with a different nose and intakes. Looks like Minicraft just wanted a cheap way to make a new model. Overall, the kit is pretty nice, but a lot more detail could be used. Even though it is in 1/144, the model is still pretty big.
