Special Hobby 1/32 Scale Yakovlev Yak-3 'Onward to Berlin!' Model Kit

The Soviet Yak-3 aircraft is considered one of the best WW2 fighter planes to have seen action in the war, or at least over the Eastern front.

This new kit's decal sheet caters for three rather colourful machines flown by famous Soviet fighter ace pilots. The airplanes wore victory markings on them, dedications or various artworks on their fuselages. The most interesting of which may seem a painting of an eagle over a white heart on one of them. The model comes via three styrene sprues accompanied by one with clear parts. One of the kit's scheme options was an early machine being armed with a cannon and only one machine gun instead of a classic pair of mgs of later production machines and for this option we designed a resin plug for the starboard side mg trough.
