Item Number: HA2401
Not only is this - the MiG-15 - the iconic adversary aircraft of the Korean War from which "MiG Alley" received its name, this particular model is painted with the markings of its most successful pilot: Col. Yevgeni Pepelyayev, whose 19 claimed victories over U.S. aircraft (including fourteen F-86 Sabres) make him the top-scoring ace of the war. And the goods don't stop there! This first-ever 1/72 scale die cast Hobby Master model of the famous Soviet fighter also features engraved panel lines, a detailed cockpit with an optional position canopy and a figure of Pepelyayev, removable armament, optional position landing gear, authentic markings, and more. Measures approximately 6" long with a 5½" wingspan and includes a display stand.
