Definitely the most impressive model in my collection now, I just got this ENORMOUS Tu-160 model! It’s gotta be around 2ft long. It’s plastic which I don’t love, and I had to put it together myself, but it was very easy to build and looks amazing! It’s very detailed, the wings actually swing, it has weapons in its bomb bay and little seats in its cockpit, a great model of a truly beautiful airplane!

Mig-19 was a Soviet fighter aircraft developed by Russian Aircraft Corporation. It first flew in 1952 and entered service in 1955 as a replacement for the Mig-17. It was used across the Soviet Union and various other communist states. A variant called the Shenyang J-6 was built under license by the Chinese. It remains in service today with North Korea.
