Eduard 672398 L-410UVP 2024 ex-Gavia EDUARD EDITION upgrade set 1/72 is a unique model kit designed for experienced modellers and collectors seeking the highest quality detailing. This 1/72 scale model faithfully recreates the legendary Czech short-range transport aircraft, the L-410UVP Turbolet, which has been used since the 1970s primarily by countries of Central and Eastern Europe, as well as nations in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.

The L-410UVP is an aircraft manufactured by the Czech company LET Kunovice, widely used in both civil and military aviation. Turbolets, adapted to operate from unprepared airfields, gained recognition for their reliability, simplicity of operation, and ability to perform in challenging weather and terrain conditions. They have participated in numerous transport, patrol, and rescue missions—aircraft of this type could be seen in military markings of the USSR, Czechoslovakia, Russia, Poland, Bulgaria, and Hungary from the Cold War period up to modern times.
