Description This is an injection-plastic ship model kit. The Admiral Kuznetsov is the only aircraft carrier that the Russians have today. It features a ski-jump angled deck and can carry up to 60 aircraft. The Kuznetsov also has formidal anti-ship and anti-sub operation capabilities, with VLS launchers are lined up along the flight deck. Originally released as a collaboration with Pit-Road, Trumpeter now re-releases this beautifully detailed injection plastic kit of this huge carrier on their own. It can be built as either a water-line model or full-hull model. Many Mig-29, Su-33 and KA-28, KA-29, and KA-31 helicopters are included. A great addition to your modern Russian Navy collection. If you wish to build the water-line version, a clear blue plastic "water" base is also included.
