Trumpeter KA-31 HELIX 03416 1:700 Scale Naval Helicopter Model Kit  [TP03416]

Scale 1:700 Kamov Ka-31 Helix model from Trumpeter

This product is a 1:700 plastic model kit depicting the Kamov Ka-31 Helix shipborne airborne early warning helicopter, produced as a compact kit for small display footprints and carrier group arrangements.

The Kamov Ka-31 is a Russian shipborne airborne early warning helicopter developed from the Kamov coaxial rotor family. It carries a rotating or retractable radar array to extend surveillance range beyond a surface ship's sensors and has been exported to several navies. The Ka-31's compact airborne radar capability and coaxial rotor layout allow operations from a variety of ship classes where area air surveillance is required.

Included parts and build guidance

The 1:700 kit is formed from injection-moulded plastic parts. Its compact finished size makes it well suited to tight dioramas or multi-ship displays. The kit includes many small components across six sprues; careful trimming, test-fitting and use of precision tools are recommended for clean assembly. The supplied data does not indicate photo-etched, resin, or metal upgrade parts, and decals are not specified.

A faithful compact Ka-31 suitable for collectors and modellers building carrier or fleet scenes; the modest parts count and small footprint support tidy group displays.
