Modelsvit 72020 Plastic model aircraft kit Scale 1:72 Su-20 fighter-bomber

Sukhoi Su-20 aircraft plastic model kit in 1/72 scale by ModelSvit represents an export version of the Soviet variable-sweep wing fighter-bomber developed during the Cold War period. The Su-20 was based on the Su-17 family and adapted for international operators.

The Su-20 entered service in the 1970s as an export modification of the Su-17, featuring a variable-geometry wing designed to improve performance across different flight regimes. Aircraft of this type were delivered to several countries, including Middle Eastern air forces, where they were used for ground attack and tactical strike missions.

Sukhoi Su-20 - Variable-Sweep Wing Fighter-Bomber

The Su-20 combined a powerful jet engine with a swing-wing configuration, allowing it to operate efficiently at both low and high speeds. Its design focused on delivering ordnance against ground targets while maintaining operational flexibility across a wide range of missions.

For modelers: Aircraft with variable-sweep wings require attention to wing positioning and alignment during assembly. Painting the intake, cockpit, and wing components before final assembly can help maintain a clean finish in 1/72 scale.
