Tamiya 1/48 Ilyushin IL-2 Shturmovik

The Ilyushin Il-2 was one of the most significant ground-attack aircraft of WWII. It incorporated a sturdy monocoque construction and excellent armor protection to make it perfect for ground attack operations. It was initially conceived as a two-seat design but due to weight issues it was re-designed as a lighter single-seat aircraft in 1940. This kit comes with 3 decal marking options and parts for 100kg and 250kg bombs are included.
