Manufactured by Herpa as a limited edition piece (model number 513852), this miniature aircraft features authentic markings including the Iraqi Airways logo on the tail fin and detailed fuselage graphics. The model showcases the characteristic four-engine configuration and high T-tail design of the IL-76, with careful attention paid to the aircraft's unique proportions and landing gear arrangement.The Ilyushin IL-76 is a Soviet-designed strategic airlifter that first flew in 1971, becoming one of the world's most successful heavy transport aircraft. With a wingspan of 50.50 meters, length of 46.59 meters, and height of 14.76 meters, this four-engine jet was designed for delivering heavy machinery to remote, poorly-serviced areas. Iraqi Airways operated several IL-76 aircraft for both cargo and passenger operations.
