Product description:

The photo-etched set Eduard 49975 L-39MS 1/48 TRUMPETER is a high-quality set of parts dedicated to precisely reproducing the cockpit details and equipment of the L-39MS aircraft (a developmental version of the L-39 Albatros) in a Trumpeter plastic model. The accessories are made from thin brass sheet, which provides excellent durability while also enabling the highest level of realism even for the finest details.
The set includes pre-painted photo-etched parts dedicated to the pilot's cockpit and unpainted parts for self-assembly of internal and external construction details.

Historical information:

L-39MS is an advanced trainer and light attack jet developed in Czechoslovakia, being an improved version of the popular L-39 Albatros. The aircraft was introduced in the early 1990s and was mainly used in Central and Eastern European countries—such as the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary—mainly for advanced pilot training and as a light attack aircraft. Aircraft of this series took part in training missions during modern conflicts and NATO exercises.
