Shipping calculated at checkout
The Beriev Be-8 was a Soviet light amphibious flying boat developed in the late 1940s, used for coastal patrol, liaison, and experimental work — a compact, twin-boom aircraft produced in small numbers that represents a transitional moment in Soviet maritime aviation between the piston era and the jet age. The water ski and hydrofoil landing gear options included in this kit reflect genuine experimental configurations tested on the Be-8 during its development, adding an additional dimension of interest for anyone drawn to the more unusual corners of Cold War aviation history. Sova-M’s kit covers this rarely modelled Soviet subject in 1/72 — the kind of esoteric amphibious type that only specialist Ukrainian and Russian manufacturers tend to tackle.
A rare Soviet amphibian with experimental gear options — Be-8 Mole in 1/72 scale.
