Zvezda Snap Kit snap-in kit

The models of the Zvezda series of the Snap Kit series are intended mainly for beginning builders. Individual plastic pieces need to be cut from the moldings with a knife or snapped out with pliers. The plastic pieces are designed so that they can snap together and thus hold together. We definitely recommend gluing the individual pieces together after clicking to increase the strength of the models, eg with Revell Contacta Professional glue.

The assembled model must then be painted with enamel (synthetic) or acrylic paints on plastic models.

Template information:

The famous Soviet attack aircraft Il-2 was nicknamed the "flying tank" due to its reliable armor, strong armament and direct support of ground troops in combat. Its large-scale production began in February 1941, and at the beginning of World War II, in various modifications, it flew into combat on all war fronts. The very first variant of the Il-2, which crushed German troops since the first days of the war, was a single-seat version. The armored capsule protected the engine and cockpit well, the wings were again protected by duralumin plates, while the tail of the fuselage was glued from plywood. As an attack aircraft, the Il-2 had a very strong armament in the form of a pair of 20 mm ShVAK cannons installed in the wings and a pair of 7.62 mm ShKAS machine guns. In addition, he carried eight more rocket launchers with 132 mm or 82 mm missiles and up to 600 kg of bombs that could be hung in bomb bays.
