About product

The BIG ED combined package for the Mi-24A helicopter

At Eduard the abbreviation BIG ED denotes a combined package into which the manufacturer puts several separately released photo-etched sets intended for a single type. The modeler thus has both interior and exterior parts together and does not have to hunt for them piece by piece. The material is photo-etched metal, and some of the frets in this line are color printed. A plastic kit of the helicopter is needed for the build and is sold separately.

Mil Mi-24A, the Hind with the glazed cockpit

The first production form of the Hind looked quite different from the later machines. The pilot and the operator sat under a single large canopy that earned the nickname greenhouse; the separate cockpits with their bubbles arrived only with the D version. The Mi-24A carried a movable 12.7 mm machine gun in the nose, rocket launchers under the wing and Falanga anti-tank missiles. Alongside its armament it could take a squad of troops in the fuselage, so it combined an attack helicopter with a transport in a way no one else managed at the time.

Working with photo-etched metal

Separate the frets with a blade on a firm surface rather than with cutters, otherwise the part will twist. Adjacent bends come out precisely on a bending tool, or at a pinch between two blades. Metal is degreased before painting and given a coat of primer, otherwise the finish flakes off.

Who the package is for

  • Modelers who want to finish the helicopter in one go and in a single purchase
  • Builders with experience of bending metal parts
  • Anyone interested in Soviet equipment of the 1970s
  • Those building the Hind with open hatches and access panels

FAQ

It is a combined package in which the manufacturer offers several of its separate sets for one type together.

No. The contents are partial metal add-ons; the basis is a plastic kit that has to be bought separately.

Cyanoacrylate glue or two-part epoxy. Modeling cement for plastic does not hold on metal.

Considerably. It has a shared angular cockpit glazing, whereas the Mi-24D and later have tandem cockpits with bubble canopies.
