Monogram and I think KP. Don't know the details. I've seen both and they look like Frogfeet to me.

I never saw the Monogram out of a box but I briefly had a K-P kit and it looked like a beautiful kit with many weapons choices and detailed parts. Sorry it wasn't my preferred scale. Their 1/72nd kit was the best I've seen also.

Two real choices, Monogram and OEZ (which I beleive can also be found in a KP box). The Monogram kit is nice in the box with recessed panel lines, but the intake interior has a large step, but a big issue is that the aircraft represents the T-8-15 pre-production Frogfoot as it appeared at the Paris Air show, even including special antennas fitted to navigate to the show. OTOH, the OEZ/KP kit represents a production configuration and has a much more varied selection of weapons, but more complex build and somewhat wide panel line detail.

I hear the sound of two kits bashing........

Thanx all. Now I will have to find a KP, OEZ and Monogram kit's to mess with.

I am interested in the Su 25 and Su 25T as I have been flying them in a sim called LOMAC Flaming Cliffs and having an absolute blast !!

Now I want to build a model of the Su 25, and someday an Su 25T

Kitbash the Monogram and KP kits and use a Neomega cockpit. IIRC there was an FSM article on correcting the Monogram kit. The kitbash will mainly consist of grafting the intake trunks from the KP kit into the Monogram.
