Trumpeter 03461 - YAK-38 Forger 1/700 Kit Overview

The Trumpeter 03461 1/700 scale YAK-38 Forger captures the character of the Soviet VTOL used by the navy during the Cold War and makes a strong addition to a naval aviation lineup. The kit focuses on accurate silhouette and manageable detail for small-scale display.

Background and Modelling Interest

The YAK-38 Forger was the Soviet Union's first operational carrier-capable VTOL aircraft, and its unusual layout draws interest from history minded modellers. This 1/700 kit from Trumpeter presents the aircraft in compact form so builders can study its structure and profile at scale.

Display Options for Collectors

Its small footprint means the YAK-38 fits well on crowded shelves or inside diorama scenes without dominating space. The distinct profile adds period context to naval collections and pairs nicely with carrier and fleet models.
