Aero L-39MS/L-59 Super Albatros 1/48 Trumpeter

The Aero L-59 Super Albatros is a Czech military jet trainer developed from the firm’s earlier L-39 Albatros. Compared to its predecessor, it featured a strengthened fuselage, longer nose, a vastly updated cockpit, advanced avionics (including head-up display), and a more powerful engine. At the time of its first flight in September 1986 it was designated the L-39MS.

Trumpeter often recommends using Tamiya X and XF paints – click here to purchase!
