We present a detailed plastic model kit of the assault and transport helicopter Trumpeter 05110 Kamov Ka-29 Helix-B in the popular 1:35 scale. This model kit was created for demanding aircraft modellers who wish to faithfully reproduce the Soviet, later Russian, shipborne helicopter designed for operations from landing ships and aircraft carriers.

The Kamov Ka-29, known by the NATO designation “Helix-B,” was developed in the USSR based on the shipborne Ka-27 helicopter. The project began in 1973, with the first flight in July 1976. The Ka-29 was produced in series by Russia/USSR. The helicopter entered official service in 1984 and was mainly used in airborne and naval infantry units during the Cold War. It became particularly renowned during exercises and amphibious landings on large “Ivan Rogov”-class landing ships. The helicopter was used for transporting troops and equipment as well as for fire support, making it one of the key elements of Soviet naval forces of that era.
