Hobby Boss 80336 1/48 MiG-17PF Fresco D Scale Model Kit  [HB-80336]

Hobby Boss 1/48 MiG-17PF Fresco D by Hobby Boss 80336

The MiG-17PF Fresco D earned its place in postwar aviation and the Hobby Boss 80336 brings that profile to life in 1/48 scale. This kit reflects the fuselage extension, wing fences and swept wing that addressed earlier stability issues.

Service Use and Performance Details

Introduced in the 1950s, the MiG-17 family benefited from the VK-1 turbojet and later performance tweaks. The PF variant added a forward radar installation which made it better suited to interception roles at night and in poor weather.

Why This Kit Appeals to Modellers

With clean mould lines and focused cockpit/radar parts, the kit is well suited to display-oriented builds. The scale makes it straightforward to add subtle weathering and finishing touches that enhance realism.
