Trumpeter 02355 Soviet NKL-6 Aerosan 1/35 – Plastic Model Kit

The Trumpeter 02355 Soviet NKL-6 Aerosan in 1/35 scale is a highly detailed plastic model kit representing the Soviet NKL-6 "Aerosan" snow vehicle. This machine was used by the Red Army during World War II as a transport and reconnaissance vehicle in winter conditions. Its unique design featured a lightweight hull mounted on skis and a propeller drive, enabling efficient travel across deep snow where wheeled or tracked vehicles were ineffective.

The NKL-6 Aerosan was a vehicle typical for the snow-covered regions of the Soviet Union. It was mainly in service from 1942 until the end of the war, particularly on the Eastern Front and during the defense of Leningrad. Its lightly armored structure, equipped with a machine gun, guaranteed crew protection and allowed rapid movement across frozen terrain.

The model presented by Trumpeter allows you to recreate the NKL-6 in 1/35 scale with exceptional attention to detail. The kit consists of over 80 parts distributed across 5 sprues, and also includes a dedicated photo-etched fret for realistically reproducing highly detailed elements (such as shields and hull details). The set does not include metal or resin parts, but the use of the latest plastic molding technology ensures that the details are extremely sharp and true to the original.
