That looks cool. Who's model is it and for which platforms?

Looks like a mini Mig , or SU-27

The Modell is made by India Foxt Echo - Dino Cattaneo

This aircraft belongs to a group of new advanced trainers who can achieve supersonic speed and in principle also replace the old Northrop T-38 "Talon". These machines can also be used as light earth combat aircraft and can also be used for air policing. An example from Germany. There are 2 . . . 3 incidents per week in which airplanes and helicopters do not fly where they should. Often enough are the scheduled airlines from Asia, which have a somewhat free interpretation of flight path. The German Air Force sends two Eurofighter Typhoons every time to look and that's expensive.

Other competitors for this market are:

- AIDC T-5 Brave Eagle
- Boeing/SAAB T-7 Red Hawk
- Hongdu L-15
- KAI T-50 Golden Eagle

The USAF has now opted for the Boeing/SAAB T-7, but it is unlikely that anyone outside the US will buy it.

The video on IndiaFoxtEcho website shows it off well.
Dino's modelling is continuing to evolve. Very nicely done.

I agree. At the moment I am "fighting a little bit" with the Aureal waning system. Think it is my fault....
