The machine was developed as a technically advanced evolution of the famous Cessna 180 model, with a reinforced structure and a more powerful engine (Continental IO-520-D, 300 HP). The U-17B was especially appreciated by military pilots for its ease of use, durability, and ability to operate from short, unprepared airstrips, making it well-suited for service in tough conditions and operations away from main military bases.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      The Kovozavody Prostejov KPM0235 kit in 1\/72 scale refers to the military variant, often used on missions in countries such as Vietnam, Laos, or nations in Africa and Central America, where it supported training, transport, and rescue operations as part of American aid programs.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      This model is especially recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers (\u003cstrong\u003edifficulty level 3\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e), due to the somewhat more complex interior construction, details, and wide range of painting possibilities following original schemes. It is an excellent choice for people building a collection of Cold War era military aviation models and for all seeking a faithfully reproduced miniature of an aircraft with a rich operational history.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cmeta itemprop=\"brand\" content=\"Kovozavody Prostejov\"\u003e\n  \u003cmeta itemprop=\"sku\" content=\"KPM0235\"\u003e\n  \u003cmeta itemprop=\"model\" content=\"Cessna U-17B Skywagon\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n```","brand":"Kovozavody Prostejov","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54725975245134,"sku":"KPM0235","price":15.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/5149\/0638\/files\/f767ff4ce4580179a5532c4a778eee90.png?v=1755613494","url":"https:\/\/plastmodel.com\/de\/products\/65730-kovozavody-prostejov-kpm0235-cessna-u-17b-skywagon-172","provider":"Plastmodel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
