Looking at this KA-27PS model in 1:72 scale by Zvezda, assembled by Sergey Erofeev, something that really stands out is the neatness of the build. The paint job is clean and crisp, giving the helicopter a very polished look. It’s the small details like this that make you appreciate the craft.

Now, what’s cool about the real KA-27PS is its history — it’s primarily a search and rescue helicopter used by the Soviet Navy. From what I gather, this chopper was quite the workhorse back in the day, designed to operate from ships in all weather conditions. It had a dual rotor design, which wasn’t just for show but played a big role in its ability to handle challenging sea conditions. I find this aspect fascinating, considering how complex naval operations can be.

What really makes this model worth checking out is the combination of Sergey’s craftsmanship and the helicopter’s unique design. It’s a great piece for anyone interested in naval aviation or just looking to see a well-executed model that captures a bit of aviation history. It’s simple things like the tidy assembly and the bit of historical depth that keep this hobby so engaging for me.
