Kamov Ka-50 Black Shark Hokum - Russia - Russian Army 1/72 Scale Diecast Model

Description: 1:72 Scale Diecast metal and plastic parts – Kamov Ka-50 Black Shark Hokum - Russian Army - Length: 8.5" (from tip tail to tip of rotor at the front) Rotor span: 8” This model does not include a pilot/crew figures. The cockpit can not open. The landing gear is nicely detailed. A stand where the model can be attached for display is included. The display stand has the model's info such as country, flag and scale. The blades for the main rotor need to be attached. Although they are supposed to be snap/friction fit, it seems that it will be better is a tiny (very tiny) drop of super glue is applied just to keep things secure. The assembly for the rotor and the blades are very fragile, so one needs to be very careful when attaching the blades since it is very easy to bend or break things out of shape. These helicopter models are really not toys, they are not made to be played with. They will not last long if played with. Moreover, these models are made to look realistic and faithful to the real thing, so little parts like landing gears, skies, weapons, pods and antennas are made from small parts and are very fragile. This is not a toy. Recommended for 15 and up. The Kamov Ka-50 "Black Shark", NATO reporting name Hokum A, is a Soviet/Russian single-seat attack helicopter with the distinctive coaxial rotor system of the Kamov design bureau.
