The real subject

The Letov S-16 was a Czechoslovak bomber and reconnaissance biplane of the 1920s, designed by Alois Smolik at the Letov military aircraft factory. The two-seat machine was rugged and reliable for its day, served with the Czechoslovak Air Force and, in export versions, abroad as well. One of these aircraft became famous for a long-distance flight that showed what the Czechoslovak aircraft industry of the time could do.

Building and painting tips

On a biplane, pay attention to seating the wings and the struts accurately; once it is assembled and painted, add the bracing wires, which give the model a realistic look - stretched sprue or fine thread can be used. Glue the plastic with modeling cement for plastic and the photo-etched parts with cyanoacrylate. Apply a primer before painting and spray the colors with an airbrush.

Who the model is for

  • Enthusiasts of interwar Czechoslovak aviation
  • Collectors of biplanes and aviation history in 1:72 scale
  • More experienced modelers with experience of rigging and photo-etch

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
