1/72 Zvezda Ka-27

Anyone any idea if this kit is any good?

It looks like it goes together reasonably well, but how accurate is it? I've had a trawl using Google and I can't really find anything definitive. :wall:

On the same track, how close is the old Cold War era Airfix Ka-25 to the real thing - were they near or way off?

Thanks in advance,

Mike. :)

It went together just fine when I did one a couple of years ago.

As to accuracy..I'm not one of the 'micrometer brigade' so it looked the part as far as I was concerned.

Airfix Ka-25 builds up ok and is a good starting point but does need detailing. One version of the kit gives the version which had a round bottomed radar and the semi-retractable undercarriage.(Hormone B.I think)

There is a good aftermarket decal sheet available for both types but can't recall the Russian (?)company
