- Introducing a completely new mold 1/350 Project 667A Yankee type nuclear ballistic missile submarine injection plastic kit from Micromill in Ukraine.
- The Yankee class is a nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) that was planned as a successor to the hotel-type nuclear submarine and operated by the Soviet Navy.
- The Yankee type name is based on the NATO code name, and 34 ships were commissioned from 1967 to 1972.
- Unlike the hotel-type R-13, this class was superior in that it did not need to rise to the surface and could launch submersible-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs) from underwater, but the R- 27/RSM-25's short range of 2,000 km meant it had to move to a point where the enemy had air superiority and sea control.
- This type was designed based on various materials on the George Washington-class strategic nuclear submarine obtained through Soviet intelligence activities, so it has an appearance similar to the American George Washington-class strategic nuclear submarine.
- Kit includes photo-etched parts, display stand and decals.
- The total length will be approximately 377mm when completed.
