Responsibility details are not available.
This product is a sheet of decals, that is, markings for finishing a model you have already built. It is not a kit. The Czech manufacturer AML issued it for the twin-engine Soviet machines of the Yakovlev design bureau in 1:48 scale — the Yak-2, Yak-4 and Yak-6 types. These are subjects that are only rarely available as kits, so a decal sheet is a valuable accessory for their builders in widening the choice of markings.
The Yak-2 and Yak-4 were Soviet twin-engine light bomber and reconnaissance aircraft of the turn of the 1930s and 1940s, derived from a fast single-purpose prototype. They were marked by an aerodynamically clean airframe and mixed construction, but their series production remained small and more modern types quickly replaced them in service. The Yak-6, by contrast, was a light twin-engine liaison and transport aircraft of wooden construction with a pair of M-11 radial engines, used for courier, training and supply tasks. All three types are among the less well-known and all the more interesting chapters of Soviet aviation.
Before applying them, check that the finish is perfectly cured and smooth. Cut the sheet into the individual designs and dip them one after another in lukewarm water; as soon as the carrier film starts to release, take the decal out and let it rest for a few seconds on a paper pad. Soviet stars and tactical numbers are often placed over the rounded surfaces of the fuselage and over the covers of the engine nacelles — that is exactly where a softener helps, so that the film follows the shape. Draw off the surplus water with a cloth from the center to the edges, so that no air is left under the decal. Seal the finished markings with varnish and only then weather them.
This is a decal sheet, not a kit. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
