I was wondering if anybody knows of a good website to find spare parts for a 1/72 Su-27. The set is a Revell, and its unfortunately out of production. I specifically need to find an speed brake because i lost mine and cant find it. please respond if you know… i’ll be appreciative!
[:D] [#welcome] to the forum. This forum is probably your best bet for finding spare parts. Sometimes you can write to the kit manufacturer and get missing or broken parts from them. This is normally a very time consuming process and sometimes they want some money for their efforts and time.

Thanks for the welcome! But ive tried revell-monograms replacement service, and they dont recognize its kit number.
Can’t help you with the Revell part, but a speed brake should be fairly easy to fabricate from some sheet styrene. Might try your hand at scratch making a part.

I´ve got som leftovers from a water leak and might be able to help you. Please give me the kit no. and I will check.

The Su-27’s kit number is KIT 4348, according to the box. But using a styrene sheet sounds like a good idea. thanks, rjkplasticmod.
My kit no. is 4376, but if you compare these links, it looks like the same mold.

I got the speedbrake and its push rod if you want it. It got some paint on it, but you can just sand it smooth.
If you want it, we have to do it off this forum(check out the thread about the “decal exchange program” and you will understand).
Just send me an email.
