Eduard EX731 is a high-quality set of masks dedicated to the Su-27S aircraft model in 1/48 scale, specifically designed for the model produced by Kitty Hawk. This set was created for modelers who value precision and convenience during the painting of the canopy and aircraft wheels.

Su-27S (NATO: Flanker-B) is a Soviet air superiority fighter, introduced into service in the Soviet Union in the early 1980s. This aircraft was widely used during the Cold War and remains in service today in the Russian army, as well as in the air forces of several former Eastern Bloc countries. The Su-27S stood out for its impressive performance, advanced avionics, and exceptional maneuverability, proving itself both as an interceptor and an escort aircraft during numerous exercises and patrol missions.
