The Mi-4 was designed in response to the American H-19 Chickasaw and the deployment of U.S. helicopters during the Korean War. While the Mi-4 superficially resembles the H-19 Chickasaw, it is a larger helicopter and is able to lift more weight. The first model entered service in 1952 and replaced the Mi-1. The helicopter was first displayed to the outside world in 1952 at the Soviet Aviation Day in Tushino.
Trumpeter brings us a newly molded 1/48th scale kit of the Mi-4a Hound, a helicopter that began operation in the Soviet Union in 1952. This delicately molded kit accurately expresses the cockpit, engine, and interior; photo-etched parts are included, as are decals for Soviet Air Force and Chinese People's Liberation Army Air Force versions.
