Hi,

I�m looking for the deck colours of the Project 21631 Buyan-M class Corvette of the Russian Navy.
The link bellow (in Cyirilic) shows detailed and high resolution photos with a Project 21631 Buyan-M class Corvette with the decks painted with a (new?) grey colour scheme, that I believe is the same grey colour used on the hull and structures.

However, other photos shows the decks painted with the (traditional/old?) red brick colour.

Any comments regarding the colour decks issue is welcome!

Thanks.
Regards,
Ayala Botto

Thanks Neptune. Now awaiting my water-jet system. Have the motor and ESC and now need to build a test platform. Thanks for all your help.

Sure buddy, here you go. This is a link to the last page, with a table with names of the ships on order. Apparently they ordered already up to 9 units, with 8 names known.
Anyway, the pages before contain the interesting pictures

Hi Neptune. Do you have a link to the Russian Buyan-M site - regret unable to Google in Cyrillic as yet!!!

There is info and pics of Buyan-M available, but they are covered in a different topic on airbase. However I can't recall seeing any dry dock or yard shots of that class. Only some top shots from inside the building halls, but nothing below the waterline. Not sure if they are similar or if there is any considerable change to the jets or hull shape. They're handsome for sure, but for RC they're rather small I guess. You'd be obliged to go to 1/72 or 1/50 or larger scales to make it properly. Your solution isn't bad if you can conceal the working jet nicely.

Thanks Neptune. This is a well documented ship. Am playing with installing a single KMB JET28 water jet on the centreline with dummy pump jets to port and starboard, with the active jet being covered for display purposes. I note however that there is not very much available on the Buyan-M - am hoping to encourage some colleagues to build that one. Thanks again for all your links.

Sorry, forgot to direct you to this topic as well. The first one I linked was in the modelling part of airbase.
This one is in the main board:
http://forums.airbase.ru/2005/02/t34913 ... 21630.html

It has more and different pictures, although I can't really recall seeing any close-ups or better underwater views than in the modelling topic. Anyway definately worth a visit!

I too am very interested by the Buyan-M version with Klub. Very handsome ships!

Thanks Neptune - pure gold! The missile variant is a lovely ship too but I will stay with the smaller ship. Now to get some hull lines and to figure out how to make a pump jet!!

Looking at the site more I found a set of lines - look OK to me - http://forums.airbase.ru/2008/01/t65900 ... trakh.html

All the way around the world to find pictures located in Tumut.

Have become very intrigued by this handsome corvette and am looking at working up plans for a 1/72 scale build. There are two variants Project 21630 - Buyan (small artillery ship) and 21631 - Larger missile armed variant. Questions - anyone have a useful set of plans of either variant? Anyone have any detail/pix on the pump-jet propulsion?
