The Tu-16K-10 (BADGER C) version was developed as an anti-ship missile carrier and equipped with advanced K-10S radar systems, allowing for long-range maritime target engagement. This aircraft participated in many patrol operations over the Baltic Sea and the Pacific Ocean, and was one of the cornerstones of nuclear deterrence during the Cold War period—from the late 1950s up to the 1980s.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eThe model consists of over 300 parts, providing detailed replication of the fuselage, wings, landing gear, and cockpit equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eThe kit includes a detailed assembly manual and rich decals for recreating Soviet markings from different service years.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eThe model can be displayed with either extended or retracted landing gear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eGlue or paints are not included—the assembly requires separate modeling accessories.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eRecommendation and Difficulty Level\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eTrumpeter 01613 Tupolev Tu-16K-10 BADGER C\u003c\/strong\u003e is an excellent choice for intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level 4\/5).
