Not a kit for beginners due to fit issues
Assembly and fit range from excellent to poor. The complex interior assemblies, for instance, mate with surprising speed and ease. Only the scarcity of locating devices snarls construction - especially when aligning the complicated, multi-piece cargo bay.
By contrast, every major component demanded filling, filing, and fitting. The engine-to-wing fit was poor. Toko's plastic is soft, easy to work, and responded quickly to iquid cement. However beware, super-glue accelerator softened it, slowing filling.
While the instructions and box top depict one Ukrainian military example, the beautifully printed, six-color decals offer at least two additional Ukrainian and Soviet civil versions, for which markings information is not supplied. Presumably, these are for other releases of the same basic subject.
Not an easy kit but with patience and perseverance a beautiful model can come out
