A jaw-dropping, high-visibility showcase of Eastern European airpower design. This highly detailed 1:72 scale diecast model by Hobby Master (HA6513) replicates the Mikoyan MiG-29A/AS Fulcrum (#6829), operating with the 1st Letka (1st Squadron) of the Slovak Air Force. Originally manufactured in late 1994, this specific airframe was delivered to Sliac Air Base in January 1995. In 2002, the fighter received a magnificent, meticulously painted "Slovak Tiger" special anniversary scheme to serve as the air force's official solo air show demonstrator. It performed spectacularly at the 5th Slovak International Air Display in June 2002, captivating crowds with the MiG-29's legendary thrust-to-weight agility. Tragically, later that same year in November, this gorgeous aircraft was lost in a mid-air collision during a night training exercise. This premium model serves as a definitive historical tribute, flawlessly capturing the intricate, fiery tiger stripe livery across the fuselage and tail fins.
Ideal for curators of modern European air arms and spectacular special-display liveries, this Air Power Series release serves as a definitive historical artifact. The 1:72 scale model is engineered with premium precision, boasting a heavy diecast metal main fuselage with crisp recessed panel line definitions. The opening canopy provides a clear view of the detailed cockpit, complete with side consoles and an ejection seat replica. Key technical highlights include detailed Klimov RD-33 engine inlet louvers on the upper leading edge roots, twin vertical tail fins with integrated radar warning receivers, and intricately cast engine exhaust nozzles. Complete with a wealth of detachable under-wing pylons, external fuel tanks, defensive missiles, and a sturdy presentation display stand, this premium model commands the center spot of any modern fighter gallery.
