A-Model 07235 Yakovlev Yak-4 Soviet IIWW Short-range Bomber 1/72 – plastic aircraft model kit

A-Model 07235 is a high-quality plastic model kit representing the Soviet Yakovlev Yak-4 short-range bomber in 1/72 scale. It is a faithfully reproduced miniature of the historic bomber that played a significant role at the beginning of World War II on the Eastern Front.

Yakovlev Yak-4 is an improved version of the Yak-2 bomber, designed by the design bureau of Aleksandr Yakovlev. The machine was fitted with more powerful engines and improved performance, allowing it to be used to support the Red Army's ground forces in 1941–1943. Although the Yak-4 was not mass produced (about 90 units were built), it proved effective in reconnaissance, bombing, and escort missions during the initial phases of Soviet military operations, including at Smolensk and Moscow. The aircraft was used exclusively by the Soviet Union, and its operational activity was limited to the period of World War II.

The A-Model 07235 kit faithfully reproduces the characteristic appearance of the Yak-4, including its streamlined fuselage, twin vertical stabilizers, detailed cockpit, as well as landing gear and armament elements based on original documentation. The kit contains styrofoam sprues with parts made from high-quality durable plastic, ensuring precise assembly. The manufacturer did not include photo-etched or metal parts; paints and glue are not included in the set.
