A-Model 07239 Mikoyan-Guryewicz MiG-AT Russian modern advanced trainer 1/72 is a high-quality plastic model kit, accurately replicating one of the most advanced Russian trainer aircraft of recent decades. The 1/72 scale provides a detailed yet compact model, perfect for both collecting and display purposes.

The model and its history

The MiG-AT was developed by the Mikoyan-Guryewicz (MiG) design bureau for the Russian Federation Air Force as a new-generation advanced training aircraft. Its maiden flight took place in 1996, and the project took part in Russia's aviation training modernization program during the Cold War and subsequent modern times. Although it was ultimately replaced by the Yak-130, the MiG-AT remains a curiosity and an important link in the evolution of Russian military aviation. The aircraft was tested at various Russian airfields and showcased at international air shows as a response to Western trainer solutions.
