The plastic model kit Trumpeter 01058 DPRK Hwasong 5 short-range tactical ballistic missile 1/35 is a unique proposition for advanced modelers and enthusiasts of modern military technology. The 1/35 scale model faithfully reproduces the North Korean Hwasong 5 short-range tactical ballistic missile, which is a copy of the Soviet R-17 Elbrus (Scud-B) missile. It was developed in North Korea in the late 1970s and was officially adopted by the Korean People's Army in the 1980s. The missile system was used during the Cold War and is still in service today, as the Hwasong-5 was exported to Iran and other Middle Eastern countries.

The model is characterized by an exceptional level of detail and precise construction, making it an excellent choice for collectors of military dioramas as well as hobbyists interested in modern rocket technologies. The kit includes over 990 parts made of high-quality plastic as well as numerous accessories: metal shafts, realistic copper cables, and metal pins to increase the durability and authenticity of the finished model. The set also includes photo-etched parts (3 sheets), which allow you to refine the smallest details of the missile and launcher. The kit also contains 22 sprues and realistically reproduced rubber tires.
