Not only is this - the MiG-15 - the iconic adversary aircraft of the Korean War from which "MiG Alley" received its name, this particular model carries the markings of its most successful pilot: Col. Yevgeni Pepelyayev, whose 19 claimed victories make him the top-scoring ace of the war. And the goods don't stop there! This first-ever 1/18 scale, plastic model of the famous Soviet fighter also features scribed surface details including simulated rivets; a detailed cockpit with a sliding canopy; movable flight control surfaces including working airbrakes; an accessible gun tray; retractable landing gear; an open air intake in the nose; and a specially sculpted, articulated figure of Pepelyayev. 22" wingspan; minimal assembly required. #0099228
