ANDREIVIA - Andreivian Air Support (Part One)

A new addition to the Andreivian air support is a DHC Chipmunk T.10. One of a pair acquired from the Belgian Air Force by the Andreivian Navy for use in training their pilots. The second aircraft is no longer operational and is used for spares for WK518 although if the Andreivian Government could lay their hands on some replacement parts the other aircraft, WG486, could be made airworthy again. The Andreivian Naval Air Cadets operate from a small landing strip and hangar near the Dvimin Military Academy. WK518 is currently being fitted for a ground attack role to support Andreivian Government Forces and will also be tasked with reconnaissance flights along the Andreivian coast. More on this in Part Two.

  1. Excellent model and back story. I picked up a Turcano in last years Airfix sale and was going to do something similar for the Andreivian Turks.

    Very nice.

    Cheers, Andy

    1. Cheers Andy, I also have a Scottish Aviation Bulldog to do and another Chipmunk. That's what I love about Andreivia anything is useful. The ground attack upgrade will be 6 bazooka, 3 strapped under each wing (Ref: Charles Carpenter WWII Grasshopper pilot),just waiting for them to arrive from MMS. Just building a Revell Ford Tri-Motor model which I got off ebay for 99p. This will become a new addition to Air Andreivia (or is that Air America?)

  2. Nice! I look forward to seeing the ground attack mods.

    I'm considering a scenario for Crisis Point 2016 for which this bird would be ideal (unless you have plans for using it in another game).

    1. No plans just thought it would make an interesting model suitable for Andreivia. Feel free to use it as and when you see fit oh Mighty Oracle.
