Tamiya 60704 MiG-29 Fulcrum 1/72 – plastic model kit

The Tamiya 60704 MiG-29 Fulcrum in 1/72 scale is a high-quality plastic model kit designed for aviation model enthusiasts. This kit from the renowned Japanese manufacturer Tamiya accurately replicates one of the most famous jet fighters of the “Cold War” and modern era – the Soviet Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29, NATO reporting name “Fulcrum.”

The MiG-29 is a fourth-generation multirole fighter developed in the USSR in the late 1970s. It served in the air forces of the Eastern Bloc as well as numerous countries worldwide. Entering service at the end of the Cold War period (first flight in 1977, operational from 1982), it remains in use today in Russia, Poland, Germany, India, and several countries in Africa and the Middle East. Advanced targeting systems, a top speed of up to 2,400 km/h, and impressive maneuverability gave it an edge in air combat. The MiG-29 has seen widespread use since the 1980s, including in conflicts in the Middle East and wars in the former Yugoslavia.
