Short run Kits of Rare Aircraft
VALOM is a new short run manufacturer on the horizon. They have actually been around for a while, established in 2002, but they recently caught my eye. They have taken up where Pegasus left off a few years ago it seems, producing rare short run aircraft kits, in 1/72 scale. They caught my eye with their recent release of the XFV-1 Salmon, announced earlier this year and now available. An In-Box / Quick look review will be posted shortly, and then a full build review will follow. Both Squadron and Hannants carry their products.

Sukhoi Su- 6 AM – 42
