It is a unique proposition for naval modeling enthusiasts who wish to recreate in detail the legendary Cold War vessel, which for decades symbolized the power of the Soviet Navy.

Osa II (Project 205U, NATO: Osa II class) is one of the most widely used classes of missile torpedo boats in the world, developed by the Soviet Union in the 1960s. These units entered service in 1965 with the Russian Navy and the fleets of Warsaw Pact countries, as well as many USSR allied nations such as Egypt, Vietnam, and Algeria. The Osa II boats were renowned for their considerable firepower provided by four P-15 Termit anti-ship missiles, as well as advanced radar and electronic systems.

The Osa II class vessels were used during the Cold War, taking part, among others, in the Yom Kippur War (1973) on the side of Egypt, as well as numerous patrol operations and displays of force in the Black Sea, Baltic Sea, and the Mediterranean. Fast, agile, and armed with modern missiles, they established new standards for naval warfare, promoting the doctrine of effective surprise attacks.
