1/72 NJ-22 Orao
Litaki 1/72 NJ-22 Orao is a 1/72 scale model of a two-seat version of the Yugoslavian combat and reconnaissance aircraft. The NJ-22 variant was developed as a training and combat modification of the basic J-22, designed for pilot training and attack missions. The kit offers a detailed treatment of this distinctive machine, which served in the Yugoslav and later Serbian air forces.
The J-22 Orao project began in the 1970s as a joint initiative between Yugoslavia and Romania to develop a domestic subsonic attack and reconnaissance aircraft. The machine was characterized by its simple design, durability and ability to operate from field airfields. The basic single-seat variant was soon supplemented by a two-seat version, designated the NJ-22, which was intended for combat training and operational deployment.
The NJ-22 retained its full capability to carry armament including unguided missiles, bombs and guns, so it could serve not only as a trainer but also as a full combat machine. This made it a versatile asset that expanded the operational capabilities of the Yugoslav Air Force. After the breakup of Yugoslavia, it continued to serve in Serbia, where modernized versions are still flying today.
The 1/72nd scale Litaki kit provides a realistic rendition of the NJ-22 Orao with a detailed fuselage, wings and distinctive two-seat cockpit. It allows you to build an authentic replica of the aircraft, which is one of the most important achievements of the Yugoslavian aviation industry.
The package does not include the paint or glue needed for assembly.
