Product Description
--This is a guide to the 1/144 Myassichev 3MS [Bison-B] strategic bomber from Micromill.
――3M is an advanced version of M-4, which first flew in 1953. The M-4 is equipped with four Mikulin AM-3 turbojet engines at the base of the main wing, a tandem landing gear with main landing gears at the front and rear of the fuselage, and auxiliary wheels at the tips of the left and right main wings, and can carry a payload of up to 24 tons. Although it was a bomber developed using innovative technology, it had the problem that its cruising range was too short for a strategic bomber.
――The 3M developed by Myassichev has been changed to the Dobrinin RD-7 engine, which is more fuel efficient than the M-4, and the fuselage has been redesigned to reduce the weight of the fuselage and at the same time increase the size of the main wings. In addition, by installing an aerial refueling probe on the nose, it has become possible to significantly extend the cruising range.
――This 3M first flew in 1956, and unit deployment began in 1958.
―― 3MS is an improved version of the 3M engine replaced with the RD-3M-500A.
--This injection plastic kit comes with two types of Soviet military decals, etched parts, and painted mask stickers.
――When completed, the total length will be about 371 mm and the total width will be about 365 mm.
