Hobby Boss 87244 PZL Mi-2URP Antitank Variant (1/72) – plastic model kit of an attack helicopter

The Hobby Boss 87244 PZL Mi-2URP Antitank Variant model in 1:72 scale is a high-quality plastic kit for modelers looking to recreate one of the most distinctive helicopters of the Cold War and postwar era, in its antitank version. The design is based on the Polish version of the popular Mi-2 helicopter, produced by WSK Świdnik under Soviet license, and widely used by the Polish Army and other Warsaw Pact countries.

The URP variant was armed with guided 9M14 Malutka (NATO: AT-3 Sagger) antitank missiles, giving the Mi-2 the ability to engage armored vehicles and tanks. This variant has been in use since the 1970s, with these helicopters operating both in border units and for training crews in combating armored threats. Poland was the main user of this version, and the Mi-2URP fits perfectly into the history of land forces armament and battlefield support aviation.

• Model in the popular and convenient 1:72 scale, ideal both for collections and battle dioramas.

Thanks to well-reproduced details both on the outside and in the interior, this kit allows you to faithfully recreate the Polish predator with antitank weaponry.
