Hobby Boss 1/72 IL-2M3 Attack Aircraft - Build and Display Guide

The Hobby Boss 1/72 IL-2M3 Attack Aircraft scale model recreates the sturdy Soviet ground-attack plane with careful attention to form and function. As one of the most produced combat types of World War II, the IL-2M3 played a major role in close air support, and this kit lets modelers capture that history in a neat 1/72 scale replica.

Combat Role and Authentic Details

The IL-2M3 earned the nickname "flying tank" because of its armored fuselage and durable design, and the kit reflects that character through well-defined surface detail and proportions. Builders will recognise features that hint at the aircraft's battlefield role without requiring advanced techniques to assemble.

Assembly Level and Showcase Options

Suitable for both hobbyists developing their skills and experienced builders, the Hobby Boss 1/72 IL-2M3 kit contains parts that need careful fitting and finishing. Once completed, its compact footprint makes it straightforward to display alongside other WWII types, with panel lines and scale proportions adding to its shelf appeal.
