The Lockheed SR-71A is a long-range espionage aircraft operated by the United States Air Force with an enormous maximum speed of over Mach 3. Work on the A-11 (prototype YF-12 / SR-71) began in secret in 1959 according to guidelines given by the CIA, which needed a spy plane even more perfect than the U-2, and it is believed that by 1968, when it was completed production, about 30 machines were assembled, including the training SR-71B. The nickname Blackbird, of course, comes from the black paint that is completely painted on the plane. It has a dual role to play. Firstly, it is a special material that makes it difficult to detect Blackbird by radar, and secondly, the black color is most effective in neutralizing the huge temperatures to which the fuselage is exposed during flights at 3 times the speed of sound. The planes were officially withdrawn from service in the USAF in the late 1980s, and some of them went to NASA. Technical data: length: 32.74m, wingspan: 16.94m, height: 5.64m, maximum speed: 3.56Ma, rate of climb: 60m / s, maximum ceiling: 36500m, maximum range: 5150km, armament: permanent- the plane is unarmed. The SR-71 supersonic, high-altitude strategic reconnaissance aircraft that was adopted by the U.S. Air Force is now available as a 1/72 kit from Academy! Each panel line of the product is expressed with precise molding. Decals (made by Cartograf) include 12 types, including the 9th Strategic Reconnaissance Wing "Ichiban" that had been deployed to Kadena Air Base. This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.

The Junkers Ju-87 Stuka (short for German Sturzkampfflugzeug, meaning dive bomber) is a German single-engine dive bomber with a classic tail, wings in an inverted gull-wing configuration and all-metal construction. The Ju-87 is one of the most famous Luftwaffe aircraft, a symbol of its power next to the Me-109. At the beginning of the war (1939-1941) it became a symbol of the Blitzkrieg, often causing panic among enemy soldiers by installing acoustic sirens (the so-called jerychońskie trunks), causing a specific sound during a diving flight. The creator of the machine was Hermann Pohlmann, and the Ju-87 first flew into the air in 1935, and went into production two years later. Technical data (version Ju-87B): length: 11m, wingspan: 13.8m, height: 4.23m, maximum speed: 390km / h, maximum range: 500km, maximum ceiling 8200m, armament: fixed - 3 machine guns cal .7.92mm, suspended - up to 450 kg of bombs.

When the Japanese attacked the United States in 1941, the most modern fighter in the Navy was the Grumman F4F Wildcat.Although the Wildcat was small. it was not as fast or maneuverable as the Japanese Zero fighter, but it was a very durable machine. However, in the hands of an experienced pilot, the Wildcat could best the feared Zero and the little Grumman fighter held its own against the enemy until the more powerful Hellcat was available about a year later.The Wildcat had a top speed of 320 mph at 18,800 feet. It was armed with six. 50 cal machine guns and could carry bombs and, in later versions, five inch rockets. This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.

The Grumman TBF-1 Avenger is an American, single-engine, metal-structure medium-wing bomber-torpedo plane from the Second World War. TBF Avenger was first used during the Battle of Midway (1942). His baptism of fire can be considered successful due to the numerous hits of Japanese carriers that these planes scored, although the good reputation is undoubtedly spoiled by the statistics of numerous losses on the part of these American dive bombers. Nevertheless, after the battle, TBF-1 gained the name of Avenger, the avenger. Since then, the Avenger has been widely used throughout the Pacific theater of hostilities, and has undoubtedly been one of the most important tools by which the Americans were victorious in the conflict.

Mikojan-Guriewicz MIG-27 (NATO: Flogger) is nothing more than a developed version of the MIG-23 aircraft, having the nature of an assault machine. Successively developed variants of that aircraft gradually differed more and more from the original design, and finally the designation of the MIG-23BK model was replaced with a new one - MIG-27K. In addition to the K specification, three other MIG variants were produced 27: the M version, which is in fact a simplified K version, the D version - i.e. older machines rebuilt to the M standard, and the L version - produced under license in India, called there Bahadur, i.e. the Brave. A total of just over 1000 MIGs 27 were produced. The power unit was the Khachaturov R-29B-300 engine. Technical data: length: 17.2 m, wingspan (maximum): 13.97 m, height: 4.82 m, maximum speed: 1.6 Ma, climb speed: 200 m / s, maximum range: 2500 km, practical ceiling: 15 500 m, armament: fixed - one GSz-6-30 six-barrel 30mm cannon, suspended - up to 4000 kg of cargo.

The revolutionary design of the F4U Corsair was created in 1938 in response to the request of the US Navy to design a high-speed fighter stationed on board aircraft carriers. Chance Vought took on the challenge, with the goal of fitting the most powerful of the available engines (i.e. the Pratt-Whitney Double Wasp engine) into the smallest possible airframe. The key was to place the clunky landing gear in the inverted, crooked wings that became the hallmark of the aircraft. The flight of the prototype took place on May 29, 1940, and the US Navy received its first serial Corsair on July 31, 1942. Technical data (version F4U-4): Maximum speed: 731 km / h, speed of climb: 19.7 m / s, maximum ceiling 12649 m, maximum range: 1115 km, armament: fixed - 6 M2 machine guns, caliber 12, 7mm and 4 20mm Browning cannons, sling - up to 1800 kg of bombs.

The Fieseler Fi-156 Storch (German: stork) was the most successful of the STOL-Short Take of and Landing aircraft used during World War II. The aircraft first flown in 1937 and its ability to operate from runways less than 200 meters in length was quickly appreciated, especially in supply and reconnaissance missions. Although the only armament of the machine was a rear-mounted machine gun, and the maximum speed did not exceed 175 km / h, the Luftwaffe praised the plane very much and used it on a large scale during the war. Technical data: Maximum speed: 175 km / h, speed of climb: 4.8 m / s, maximum ceiling 4600 m, maximum range: 380 km, armament: fixed - one 7.92mm MG15 machine gun.

The Cessna A-37 Dragonfly was a US Army light twin-engine attack aircraft that served from 1963 to 1992. 577 were produced. It was used in combat, mainly during the Vietnam War. It was created as a response to the US military's demand for a COIN plane - a plane that fights enemy partisan units. The A-37 was powered by two General Eletric J85-GE-17A engines. A characteristic feature of the aircraft was the arrangement of the crew seats next to each other, unusual for this class of machines. One of the greatest advantages of the A-37 in relation to the type of missions performed was undoubtedly the ability to operate from very short, provisionally prepared, field runways. Since December 1994, the A-37 has also been in the service of the South Korean air acrobatics unit - Black Eagles. Technical data: Top speed: 816 km / h; climb speed 35.5 m / s, practical ceiling 12,730 m, maximum range: 1,480 km, armament: fixed - 1 km GAU2B / A, caliber 7.62 mm, suspended - up to 1230 kg.

The Focke-Wulf Fw-190 is a German, single-engine, full-metal fighter aircraft with a covered cabin in the low wing design of the Second World War. The pilots considered the Fw-190 to be a better aircraft than the Messerschmitt Bf-109. A self-supporting low wing with a working Fw-190 coating was commissioned by the Luftfahrtministerium, assembled in the fall of 1937. Kurt Tank submitted two propulsion proposals - the first with a liquid-cooled Daimler-Benz DB 601 engine, and the second with the new BMW 139 radial engine. The latter was chosen, and the work started in the spring of 1938 was headed by Obering R. Blaser. The first prototype of the Fw-190V1 was ready in May 1939, and it was flown in Bremen on June 1, 1939 by Captain Hans Sander. The second prototype, the FW-190V2, armed with two MG131 and two MG17 machine guns - all 7.92 mm caliber, was flew in October 1939.
