This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.
The Myasishchev 3M is an evolution of the M-4, which first flew in 1953. The M-4 is equipped with four Mikulin AM-3 turbojet engines at the base of the main wing, a tandem landing gear with main landing gear at the front and rear of the fuselage, and the ability to carry a payload of up to 24 tons. Although it was a bomber developed using innovative technology, its cruising range was too short for a strategic bomber. The 3M developed by Myasishchev changed its engines for a Dobrinin RD-7, making it more fuel-efficient than the M-4, and the fuselage was redesigned to reduce its weight and increase the size of the main wings. In addition, by installing an aerial refueling probe on the nose, it was now possible to significantly extend the cruising range. The 3M first flew in 1956, and unit deployment began in 1958. The 3MS is an improved version, with the engine replaced with an RD-3M-500A.
