A-Model 07290 Kamov Ka-15M Soviet Ambulance Helicopter 1/72 – Plastic model kit of the Soviet rescue helicopter

The A-Model 07290 Kamov Ka-15M helicopter plastic model kit in 1/72 scale is a great choice for modelers passionate about Soviet aviation and the history of Cold War-era aeronautical technology. The model replicates the legendary light rescue helicopter Ka-15M in its ambulance configuration, whose prototype first flew in the late 1950s in the USSR.

The Kamov Ka-15M, designed by Nikolai Kamov's design bureau, was one of the first production helicopters with a coaxial rotor system. It was modified into a medevac version—carrying wounded on stretchers as well as medical personnel on board. Helicopters of this type were used between 1957 and 1960 in Soviet airborne ambulance services, civilian operations, and the Soviet Navy, often intervening in remote regions of Siberia and the Arctic.

The A-Model kit is made from high-quality plastic, ensuring precise details that accurately depict the Ka-15M’s ambulance silhouette. The kit includes detailed fuselage, rotor, landing gear, and cockpit parts. The model does not contain resin or photoetched elements, making assembly approachable even for intermediate modelers. Glue and paints are not included, allowing for individual color selection based on historical accuracy or personal preference.
