Hello Denis,
There is a decal with Russian words "HAGAPOBCHNN KOMCOMOA" on my model. Could you tell me the meaning?

Denis Dogadov
Hello Austin!
The inscription on the plane-"Хабаровский комсомол" (Khabarovsk Komsomol) it means that the plane was built with money raised by young residents of the city of Khabarovsk.
Komsomol is an organization of young communists in the USSR.
Several such aircraft were built, so the inscriptions could be different.
I do not know how to insert a photo into this message, so I will insert it into a photo album, then delete it.

Austin LAI
Thank you for your explanation in detail.

Dear Denis,
There is a big bomb in 1st photo. It is also included with in the model kit. What is that bomb? FAB2000 or 2500?

Mr D
Nice craft, the extra detail work paid off.
Really like the Soviet belly blue 👍👍
Well done 👌😁

Hello Austin!
I like your willingness to figure things out.
It's not a bomb, it's an aviation naval mine. It is very well made in this set.
I think no one else makes her model.
