The Su-57 is a fifth generation Russian multi-purpose jet fighter developed by the Sukhoi design bureau. The new jet with stealth technology offers a number of unique features not found in the previous generations of fighters, combining the functions of an attack aircraft and a fighter in one platform. The plane can destroy air, land and ship targets as well as the enemy's aircraft control systems. The Su-57 made its maiden flight on January 29, 2010 in Komsomolsk-on-Amur and entered service with the Russian Air Force in 2019.
When building a scale model, cotton swabs are often used with painting and applying decals. However, cotton swabs bought from supermarkets usually have loosely spun tips and quickly lose shape. These Craft Cotton Swabs have tightly spun cotton tips and are easy to use, making them much better suited for hobby use.
• These are industrial strength cotton swabs, and compared with those found in supermarkets, they do not fray as easily when wet or dipped in solvents, resulting in less wastage.
• These swabs are great for applying decals and panel lining onto model surfaces.
• Creating fine details and weathering on small areas becomes a breeze.
• You can also use the swabs effectively for applying any of the Weathering Master Set color schemes, such as realistic rust stains, to your model.
In 1943, the 8th Air Force was launching raids on Germany with its B17 and B24 from England. The aim was to destroy German main production factories. Unfortunately, losses during theses missions were very heavy and it became urgent to develop a fighter able to escort the bombers over enemy soil. The limited ranges of the Spitfire and P-38 Lightning did not make these fighters able to go further than Paris, leaving the bombers alone to fend for themselves for the rest of the flight. With the development of the P-47, this problem was overcome. The P-47 was the first single-seated fighter to be equipped with a supercharger, allowing it to fly at the same high altitude as the bombers. This high-flying fighter was armed with eight 12.7mm machineguns that proved very useful in the intense fighting that occurred in the European skies. Equipped with drop tanks for longer range, the P-47D was then able to escort the bombers all the way to the German border. The Thunderbolt also allowed many Allied pilots to become Aces. Bomber crews plagued day after day by intensive German interceptions, would remark that the presence of the P-47 was of great help.

Then some new fenders, to permit the adoption of larger wheels, were installed and new air-intakes on the hood and on the sides to optimize the cooling of the mechanics were designed. The engine was a 4-cylinder longitudinal engine characterised by the use light alloy head and 4 valves per cylinder.

As Britain struggled to develop tanks capable of equaling the superior
German Panzers, the decision was made to convert existing stocks of M4
Sherman tanks, delivered to the UK as part of the Lend-Lease Act. The
so-called Sherman Firefly featured a long-barreled 17 pdr. anti-tank
gun, that was much more effective than the original 75mm gun, capable
of penetrating a Tiger I's frontal armor at over 1,000 meters using
regular ammunition. The majority of Fireflies were adapted from M4A4
tanks, designated Sherman V by the British, while some were made using
the earlier M4, or Sherman I in British usage. Vehicles rearmed with a
17 pdr. gun were given the suffix C, with the resulting units being
Sherman VC and Sherman IC.
