Tupolev TU-95 "Bear" 1:200

From Wiki:

"The Tupolev Tu-95 (Russian: Туполев Ту-95; NATO reporting name: "Bear") is a large, four-engine turboprop-powered strategic bomber and missile platform. First flown in 1952, the Tu-95 entered service with the Long-Range Aviation of the Soviet Air Forces in 1956 and was first used in combat in 2015. It is expected to serve the Russian Aerospace Forces until at least 2040.

A development of the bomber for maritime patrol is designated the Tu-142, while a passenger airliner derivative was called the Tu-114.

The aircraft has four Kuznetsov NK-12 engines with contra-rotating propellers. It is the only turboprop-powered strategic bomber still in operational use today. The Tu-95 is one of the loudest military aircraft, particularly because the tips of the propeller blades move faster than the speed of sound.  Its distinctive swept-back wings are set at an angle of 35°. The Tu-95 is the only propeller-driven aircraft with swept wings built in large numbers."

From a wonderful Sketchfab model by meminbiyikli.  Sized to 1:200, landing gear deleted (too fragile for printing), sliced for easier printing and less supports (virtually none).  Although pictured print has no variable layer heights, this was added to the uploaded profile to smooth out layer lines.  Seam lines also adjusted.  Will need CA glue to assemble.

Printed in Bambu PLA Basic Silver, detailed with acrylic markers by in-house 11y.o. airplane enthusiast.
