A-Model 72180 Antonov An-32B Soviet Civil Plane 1/72

The A-Model 72180 Antonov An-32B Soviet Civil Plane 1/72 scale is a precise plastic model kit dedicated to aviation and modeling enthusiasts wishing to enrich their collection with a unique example of a Soviet transport aircraft. This kit allows you to recreate a detailed miniature model of the well-known and acclaimed An-32B – one of the most distinctive designs of the Soviet aviation industry.

Antonov An-32B was designed in the 1970s by the Antonov design bureau as an upgraded version of the legendary An-26. The main innovation was the use of much more powerful engines, which allowed for operations in harsh climate conditions, especially in high-altitude and tropical regions. The aircraft was widely used both in the USSR and in many allied countries, such as India and Peru, as well as in civilian roles – for cargo transport, evacuation, or resupplying hard-to-reach areas.

The operational period of the Antonov An-32B covers mainly the Cold War and modern times, starting from the late 1970s up to the present day, as aircraft of this series are still in service in various countries around the world. Their reliability and ability to operate from unprepared runways have contributed to the great popularity of this design.
