About product

The Tupolev Tu-214 from Zvezda, 1:144

In this box the Russian maker Zvezda offers the narrow-body transport aircraft Tu-214, the long-range member of the Tu-204 family. The chosen scale is the most widespread one for transport aircraft, so the finished piece will fit into a display case among the other airliners without any jump in size.

The Real Aircraft

The Tu-204 family came about in the late 1980s as a replacement for the older Tu-154, with two engines on pylons under the wing, with wingtip devices and with a modern flight deck. The Tu-214 version built at Kazan received a higher maximum takeoff weight and a greater fuel capacity, which lets it manage longer routes. Besides airlines, the type is also operated by state and special services, which have had it adapted for their own tasks.

Advice on assembly

The long fuselage goes together from several sections, so it is worth trying the fit dry first and only then joining them permanently. Weight in the nose will keep the model from sitting on its tail. The windows and the transitions between the sections are the places where patient sanding and polishing before the paint goes on pay off most, because glossy surfaces forgive nothing.

Suitable for

  • collectors of civil aircraft of eastern design
  • modelers focused on modern air transport
  • builders who want a counterpart to the western narrow-body types
  • anyone interested in aircraft from the Kazan production

The set contains parts to be assembled, not a finished model; paints and glue are not included.

FAQ

The Tu-214 is derived from the Tu-204 and differs in its higher takeoff weight and greater fuel capacity, which allow it longer routes.

With transport aircraft that have the landing gear under the fuselage it usually pays off. Weight placed forward will keep the model on its nose wheel.

They are not. The modeler obtains the shades and the glue separately, according to the chosen finish.
