The Antonov An-2 biplane is a Soviet aircraft produced from 1947 to 2001, and is a popular choice for military and civilian operators worldwide. Famous for its ability to take off and land from difficult runways, its durable airframe and impressive payload capacity are ideal for forestry, agriculture and a variety of other purposes. Variants of the An-2 include crop-dusters, water-bombers, flying ambulances, seaplanes and lightly armed combat models.
The model is scaled to approximately 1:5 and attention was paid to a true to original appearance and best flight characteristics. The model can be operated using an electric power system or with an internal combustion engine about 30-35cc displacement.
Factory Weathered Printing The printing on this model has a realistic weathering complete with rivet and panel line detail that elevates the model to a whole new level of scale appeal. |
Naca Airfoil Design For Improved Airflow The Antonov An-2 utilizes a Naca airfoil design which maximizes airflow above and below each wing for increased lift and performance. |
Electric Power The Antonov An-2 uses an electric power recommendation with ample room for your electronics but can accept a gas power setup as well. |
Large Wingspan The impressive 95.4" wingspan offers impressive presence both in the air and on the ground. |
