MiG-19P, 1/72 - Clear Prop Models CP72056

The MiG-19P in 1/72 Clear Prop Models CP72056 is a plastic model kit to be assembled, representing the MiG-19P version of the Soviet MiG-19 fighter. This reference reproduces an interceptor equipped with radar, developed for all-weather fighter missions. At a scale of 1/72, the completed model measures 183 mm in length and 126 mm in wingspan.

The MiG-19 belongs to the first generation of Soviet supersonic fighters. The P variant differs from the MiG-19S by its radar equipment, intended to improve interception capabilities. The subject is suitable for creating a military aviation scene from the 1960s, with several decal markings offered for aircraft from different air forces.

Classified Advanced Kit by Clear Prop Models, this box includes 173 plastic parts, spread across ten sprues including one clear sprue, as well as 21 photo-etched parts and 2 3D-printed parts. Two decal sheets and a detailed color assembly guide are also included.

Photo-etched parts and small components require careful preparation, suitable tools, and precise gluing. A plastic primer generally makes it easier to check joints before painting, while careful decal application will help reproduce the provided markings. The clear parts are best handled with an appropriate glue to preserve their clarity.

At a scale of 1/72, each dimension of the real aircraft is reduced by a factor of 72. This format makes it possible to build a detailed fighter while keeping a reasonable display size for a showcase or an airfield diorama.

• Black MiG-19P 0744 from the Czechoslovak Air Force, late 1960s;
