Tamiya Ilyushin IL-2 Shturmovik (1:48 Scale)

A landmark subject from WWII aviation, this Tamiya Ilyushin IL-2 Shturmovik assembly kit recreates a late-variant ground-attack aircraft in 1/48 scale. The model depicts the two-seat configuration with swept outer wings, and includes a richly detailed cockpit with the fuel tank positioned between pilot and gunner. Surface detailing across the fuselage is rendered with a high level of definition, supported by parts that reproduce the radiator and oil cooler mechanism accurately.

Build options allow the canopy to be shown open or closed, with three canopy types included. Armament and stores are comprehensively represented, with two types of 23mm cannon fairings, parts for 100kg and 250kg bombs, and three kinds of rocket launcher components. Decals are included with three marking options, alongside pilot and gunner figures and canopy masks.
