Cool Yak-25M ( twin engine jet ) GPM #546

Here is my next model build and a continuation of the Yakovlev jet designs.

This one was the recently released model ( Dec 2018 ) by GPM in 1/33 scale.

So as not to confuse folks, I did build the Yak-25 first use of this designation.

However, again it is important to note that the Soviets were notorious in recycling the design numbers and this one is completely different than the first Yak-25 which was designed in the late 1940's.

This is the twin engine aircraft.

and I got the laser frames

and a vacuformed canopy.

You can get all 3 as a set from GPM.pl

Of interest is that the booklet contains two kits. One version is printed in matt finish ( which I prefer ) and the other one is printed on shiny silver finish. Your choice to build.

The printing is crisp and beautiful.

I have yet to see anyone build it and post their progress on any forum, so if you see one, please share the link.
