Description

This exquisite 1:500 scale die-cast model by Herpa Wings represents an Interflug Tupolev 134A with registration DDR-SCW. The model features the distinctive red and white livery of the former East German flag carrier, with 'interflug' branding prominently displayed on the fuselage. Crafted with precision metal construction, this collectible captures the classic lines of the Soviet-era regional jet, complete with its characteristic T-tail configuration and rear-mounted engines. The model includes fine details such as printed cockpit windows, authentic airline markings, and accurate color reproduction.

The Tupolev Tu-134A was a twin-engine narrow-body jet airliner designed in the Soviet Union for short to medium-haul routes. First flown in the 1960s, it became a workhorse for Eastern Bloc airlines throughout the Cold War era. The aircraft measures 37.05 meters in length with a wingspan of 29.01 meters and a height of 9.14 meters. It could accommodate up to 80 passengers and was known for its reliability in various weather conditions. Interflug operated multiple Tu-134 variants as part of its fleet until German reunification in 1990.

🇩🇪 About the Airline
Interflug was the state airline of East Germany (German Democratic Republic) from 1963 to 1991. Operating primarily Soviet-built aircraft, it served destinations across Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Following German reunification, the airline ceased operations in 1991, making its aircraft and memorabilia highly sought after by aviation collectors and historians interested in Cold War-era aviation.
