RESKIT RSU35-0028 MI-24 (V,VP) ENGINE EFFLUX SCREEN (EES) SYSTEM FOR TRUMPETER KIT 1/35 – Resin detail-up set for the Mi-24 helicopter

RESKIT RSU35-0028 MI-24 (V,VP) ENGINE EFFLUX SCREEN (EES) SYSTEM is a high-quality detail-up set made of resin, designed specifically for the 1/35 Trumpeter Mi-24 V/VP helicopter model. This product was created with the most demanding modelers in mind, those who value faithful reproduction of details and achieving a realistic final effect of the Soviet combat helicopter model.

The EES (Engine Efflux Screen) system is a distinctive feature of Mi-24 helicopters in the V and VP versions, used to reduce the engines’ heat signature and protect against unwanted ingestion of foreign objects during operations in harsh field conditions. This type of screen was widely used by the Soviet Union, numerous Warsaw Pact countries, and other states utilizing the licensed design during the Cold War era, primarily in the 1970s and 1980s. The Mi-24 left an indelible mark in history, including its use in warfare in Afghanistan and conflicts in Africa and the Middle East.

The RESKIT RSU35-0028 set is made entirely from precisely cast resin, allowing for exceptional detail and an accurate replication of the EES mesh structure—something impossible to achieve with standard injection molding techniques. The product does not include any metal parts but features very thin and realistic mesh screens that imitate the originals on the aircraft engines. Thanks to this, the model gains an authentic, professional appearance, and upgrading the Trumpeter kit becomes much easier and visually more attractive.
