Ejection seats

Post by Ghostrider »

Hi Guys

does anybody know of a decent reference source regarding soviet ejection seats? obviously NATO stuff can more or less be found on the martin baker site, but cant find anything for the soviet side of the curtain. I'm particularly interested in what seat was fitted to the IL 28 Beagle. want to see if there is a better aftermarket seat, or if is better to stick with the Trumpeter offering.

Pavla make nice resin replacements for the Trumpeter Beagle.

Also, as a general reference it's worth checking out this downloadable Il-28 flight manual. It's in Russian but there are lots of excellent drawings of undercarriage and cockpit details.
