Thanks! But I hope Zvezda will produce one in plastic too, beside the 1/43

Zvezda is producing a 1/35 scale Zil-130 as well. But the AVD kits are excellent and they have five kits so far, the early and late cargo trucks and late MMZ-555 dump truck as seen above, as well as the early MMZ-555 and late MMZ-4502 dump truck.

They are nicely molded kits, I have one. Someone and probably it was Yuri mentioned they may have been molded by Zvezda.

Well I have the Zvezda 3711 WC - 54 Ambulance kit in my hands now, and it is nothing short of miraculous. The 50 year wait for this kit is over! The molding, detail, and engineering of this kit are exquisite. Even the grille guard is close to PE thinness in molding; it is totally useable. I have the Quinta set for this, and that might be all I need. This is definitely going toward the top of the queue.

The second version of the model is the takeoff configuration!
The front wing and elevons have been released.
We show photos of the test assembly, this time unpainted.
By the way, the model is balanced and stands on the chassis without a load in the nose!"

"The final portion of news on the Tu-144 in 1/144!
We show the painting scheme and application of technical inscriptions.
The decal will depict the aircraft with the tail number USSR-77110. It carried out regular passenger transportation in 1977-78, was a participant in the XXXII International Air Show in Le Bourget in 1977, receiving the exhibition number 345.
In 1984, after the end of operation, the aircraft was transferred to the Ulyanovsk Museum of Civil Aviation, where it is located to this day."

Beautiful plane! Pity the Soviets learned the same lesson the West eventually did - there was just no way a supersonic passenger service could be run at break-even, let alone profit…

It’s great that Zvezda is tackling a civilian Russian truck (although ZIS-130 were seen with ZSU-23 mounted…) but given how good the AVD kits are, I wish they would have started with something else, perhaps a GAZ-63.

A very nice model. When can I buy it?
I would be very interested in this model.
