HISTORY ASPECTS: The SU-17 Fitter, operated by the Russian Air Force’s 20 Guards Fighter-Bomber Regiment within the 16th Air Army, played a crucial role during the early 1990s. This swing-wing, ground-attack aircraft, derived from the SU-7, was designed for a variety of roles, including close air support, interdiction, and reconnaissance. In 1992, the SU-17 was involved in conflicts arising from the dissolution of the Soviet Union, particularly in regions where political instability and territorial disputes erupted. The SU-17 saw action in various regions where the Soviet legacy was undergoing significant transformations. Its combat capabilities were utilized in conflicts associated with the post-Soviet geopolitical landscape. The aircraft’s ability to operate from austere airfields and deliver a diverse range of munitions made it a valuable asset in the changing military dynamics of the early 1990s. With fine attention to detail, this 1:72 scale model captures the distinctive features of this iconic aircraft, including its swing-wing design and ground-attack configuration. A must-have for aviation enthusiasts and model collectors, this SU-17 Fitter replica allows you to showcase a piece of post-Soviet military history and appreciate the technological advancements of its era.
