Eduard 70152 Avia S-199 ERLA canopy ProfiPack edition 1/72

Eduard 70152 Avia S-199 ERLA canopy ProfiPack edition 1/72 is a high-quality plastic model kit that transports modellers to the realities of post-war Europe and the Middle East. This 1/72 scale set allows you to faithfully recreate the Czechoslovak Avia S-199 fighter with its distinctive ERLA-type canopy. The model is intended for demanding modellers who expect precise details and a richly equipped kit.

• Scale: 1/72 – ideal for aircraft model collections, offering a compromise between detail and finished model size.
• Country of use: Czechoslovakia, Israel – the Avia S-199 was built in Czechoslovakia from post-war leftover Messerschmitt Bf 109G parts, and saw its combat debut in the Israeli Air Force during the War of Independence in 1948.
• Historical period: 1940s, shortly after the end of World War II and the 1948 Israeli War of Independence (post-war era and the dawn of the Cold War).
• Kit material: High-quality plastic; includes photo-etched parts and painting masks. The entire set is packaged in the typical eye-catching and practical ProfiPACK series graphics.
• Box contents: Precision sprues with plastic parts, a photo-etched fret for enhanced detail, masks for perfect protection of clear parts during painting, a comprehensive assembly manual, and a sheet of decals for several historical aircraft paint schemes, including the version used by Israel.
• Product category: Plastic model kit.
• Difficulty level: 3 (intermediate) – recommended for modellers with previous experience working with 1/72 scale kits and photo-etched parts.
• Recommendation: I highly recommend this set for modellers passionate about post-war aviation, unique aircraft designs, and the Israeli War of Independence. The Eduard 70152 kit enables you to build a significant yet rarely modelled aircraft – one of the most recognizable "oddballs" from the early Cold War period. Thanks to the included photo-etched parts, the model achieves exceptional detail depth, while the masks make precise painting much easier. The professional standard ensures the finished model will stand out in any aircraft model collection.
