This Yakovlev Yak 17 is an older low detailed vacuformed kit manufactured by Czechoslovak company named Dubena.

I have made about a hundred parts (cockpit interior, undercarriage, canopy, etc.) for higher detailing. I have used Agama colours (enamels) for painting and Extratech decals for Czechoslovak national insignias.

The real S-100 (Yak-17 in Czechoslovak AF type code) was only one in Czechoslovak AF, it was used for test flights during 1949-1950 y. You can see it in Czechoslovak AF Museum Praha-Kbely exhibition.
