Italeri 1/72 SU-33 Flanker-D by Italeri 0197: Carrier Flanker in miniature

The Italeri 1/72 SU-33 Flanker-D captures the look of Russia's naval fighter in an easy to house scale. The kit presents the aircraft's distinct lines and carrier-ready stance so builders can create an accurate external replica for cabinets or club displays.

Notable external features replicated

The SU-33 is distinguished by its sturdy structure and carrier landing adaptations. This model concentrates on those external characteristics, offering accurate surfaces and control surface detail so you can focus on paint and weathering for realism.

Building approach and presentation tips

With clear assembly steps and neatly moulded parts, the Italeri kit rewards careful construction. Its 1/72 size makes it straightforward to finish and display, whether solo on a stand or as part of a larger collection.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic components
  • Assembly: Requires adhesive
  • Paint: Not supplied
  • Part Count: Detailed components for lifelike modelling

How long does the build typically take?

Build time varies with skill and finishing. Expect several evenings for assembly and an additional few sessions for painting and decals if you aim for a display-quality finish.

Are decals included and how do they look?

Decals are typically included in Italeri kits. They provide national and squadron markings, but careful application and a setting solution will improve their appearance.

Can I display the model with landing gear extended?

Yes. The kit parts allow the model to be posed with landing gear down for static displays. Follow the instructions for gear alignment and painting before final assembly.

Is interior detailing provided?

This kit emphasises external detail. Cockpit and internal systems are represented in basic form, so detailed interior work would need aftermarket parts or scratchbuilding.
