Tu-16K-26 Model Kit Instructions Page 5 - Assembly Steps IVA/IVB & Cockpit Photos

This document is NOT an automotive reference; it is page 5 of a scale model kit assembly and painting instruction sheet for the Soviet Tupolev Tu-16K-26 bomber/missile carrier. The page shows exploded assembly diagrams for steps IV A and IV B, covering landing gear/wheel assemblies with numbered part callouts (E1–E20 and F1–F20) and bilingual Russian/English paint callouts such as Matt Black (Черный матовый), Dark Green (Темно-Зеленый), Silver (Серебристый) and Black (Черный). Below the assembly steps are reference photographs of the real aircraft's interior — the navigator's cockpit, pilots' cockpit, pilots' cockpit ceiling, and navigator-operator's cockpit — each annotated with kit part numbers (A- and B-series). The bottom of the page presents side-profile marking/camouflage diagrams with decal placement numbers and bilingual captions identifying the subject: an R/C target carrier Tu-16-K-26 of the 1st squadron, 99 Guards Zabaykal ORAP (SAM testing), Air Defense Forces, based at Sary-Shagan AFB, Kazakhstan, circa 1980, and the same aircraft at the Belaya Tzerkov storage base circa 1990. A reader can learn assembly part sequencing, paint colors for the model, and historical unit/marking information for this aircraft. It contains no fuse, wiring, or Ford Crown Victoria data.
