Product Description
From Ukraine's Drawings comes a new product: the 1/48 Morane-Saulnier MS.406C.1 Finnish Ace Pilot.
The MS.406 was a French fighter aircraft designed and manufactured by Morane-Saulnier which first flew in 1935 and entered mass production in 1938.
Although the rear fuselage of this aircraft was covered with fabric, it was a low-wing monoplane with retractable landing gear, an enclosed windshield, and other modern features.
The aircraft served in the Finnish Air Force and fought bravely against the Soviet Union during the Continuation War.
The kit precisely recreates the cockpit and landing gear well, with the ailerons, rudder, and elevators made into separate parts, and the canopy can be displayed either opened or closed.
Also included are four types of Finnish military decals, etched parts and paint mask stickers.
When completed, the total length will be approximately 169mm and the total width approximately 221mm.
