There was much hope this would had been released last year and now listed as coming this year from Hobby Boss, the Ka-27 Naval Helicopter. Developed for the Soviet Navy, and currently in service in various countries including Russia, Ukraine, Vietnam, People's Republic of China, Republic of South Korea and India.
This Kamov made helicopter was developed for ferrying and anti-submarine warfare. Design work began in 1969 and the first prototype flew in 1973. It was intended to replace the Kamov Ka-25, and is similar in appearance to its predecessor due to the requirements of fitting in the same hangar space. Like other Kamov military helicopters it has coaxial rotors, removing the need for a tail rotor.
This kit (No. 81739) is from a new mold and has photo etched parts. Total length is 11 inches (28cm) )with a rotor diameter of 13 inches (33.2cm).
When a specific release data and price are given, we'll post that information here.
