Yakovlev Yak-30 "Magnum" Soviet trainer aircraft Scale 1:72 Amodel AMO72230 Plastic Airplane Model Kit

Yakovlev Yak-30 “Magnum” aircraft model kit in 1:72 scale represents an advanced Soviet jet trainer prototype developed during the early Cold War period.

The Yak-30 was designed as a modern jet trainer intended to prepare pilots for transition to high-performance frontline fighters. Featuring a lightweight airframe, tandem cockpit, and excellent handling characteristics, the aircraft was evaluated as a potential standard trainer for Soviet and allied air forces.

Despite strong flight performance and positive evaluations, the Yak-30 was not selected for mass production due to industrial and political considerations. Known by the NATO reporting name “Magnum”, the aircraft remained limited to prototype and small pre-series examples, making it a notable example of Cold War-era training aircraft development.

This plastic model kit is produced by AMODEL and accurately represents the prototype Yakovlev Yak-30 “Magnum” configuration. The model belongs to the Aircraft Model Kits category and is manufactured in 1:72 scale, making it suitable for Soviet aviation and jet trainer collections.
