The Petlyakov Pe-2, known by the nickname "Peshka," was a Soviet light dive bomber widely used during World War II. It became one of the greatest successes of the Soviet aviation industry – its mass production began in 1941, and the aircraft served in frontline combat against German forces as well as in other theaters of operations until the end of the war. The Pe-2 was used, among others, during the battles of Stalingrad and Kursk, as well as in numerous bombing operations throughout Eastern Europe.

The Kagero 7070 publication includes detailed, precise plans in several scales (the most commonly used by model manufacturers are 1/72 and 1/48), multicolored Pe-2 painting profiles from different service periods, and a series of construction detail drawings. A unique addition is the foil mask, allowing precise reproduction of the cockpit glass layout when building a plastic model.

Kagero 7070 is the perfect choice for modelers seeking authentic resources for recreating the Soviet bomber, as well as for historians who appreciate technical documentation. The level of advancement (difficulty scale 2/5) makes it suitable for both intermediate and experienced modelers and anyone interested in aviation topics.

We highly recommend this title to anyone planning to build a realistic Pe-2 model or wanting to explore its construction details – the high substantive quality, excellent edition, and unique extras make it a must-have in any modeler's library!
