Trumpeter 03906 Tu-160 Blackjack Bomber: Scale Model Overview

The Trumpeter 03906 Tu-160 Blackjack Bomber model brings a compact yet accurate representation of a major strategic aircraft to the workbench. Its reputation for both subsonic and supersonic operations is reflected in the kit's silhouette and surface detail.

Yes, the compact 1:144 footprint makes it practical for diorama scenes or multi-aircraft displays, provided you plan for accurate ground and signage elements.
Apply decals on a sealed base coat and then use light washes and dry-brushing for weathering so the markings remain crisp and integrated with the paintwork.
Advanced builders often add resin or photo-etch parts for cockpit and undercarriage detail, but the kit is also fine built straight from the box for a clean display model.
