Art Model 7216 MIG-27D (1/72) – Plastic Model Kit

The MIG-27D is a Russian ground attack aircraft, developed from the well-known MiG-23 fighter. The presented Art Model 7216 kit in 1/72 scale allows for a faithful recreation of this distinctive aircraft, used by the Soviet Air Force and several other Warsaw Pact countries during the Cold War and in the 1980s. The MIG-27 was widely employed to support ground forces, particularly where effective ground attack capability was crucial.

The aircraft took part in many local conflicts, including the wars in Afghanistan and Chechnya. The D version was distinguished by modern avionics, reinforced cockpit armor, and the ability to carry a wide array of weaponry, including a 30mm cannon and both unguided and guided missiles. The model accurately captures the aircraft’s characteristic shape with variable-sweep wings, allowing collectors to achieve an impressive final effect on display.
