Description This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit. A somewhat surprising release from Trumpeter, perhaps aimed at their own domestic market. However fans of modern jets are doubtless glad someone did this in injection plastic! The Karakorum is a two-seat trainer and light attack aircraft jointly developed by China and Pakistan. The type has been in service for over a decade, and is becoming increasingly popular worldwide, with a number of smaller countries operating the type.
