The Tupolev Tu-144 was a Soviet supersonic passenger jet developed in the 1960s as a response to the Concorde. It was the first SST to fly, achieving its maiden flight in 1968. Capable of reaching speeds over Mach 2, the Tu-144 was an impressive technological feat but suffered from safety and reliability issues. It briefly entered passenger service in the late 1970s but was quickly retired after a crash and continued operational problems. Despite its short career, the Tu-144 remains an iconic example of Cold War aviation.
Printing Info
There are two versions you can print, one with langing gear and one without, both with and without a sprue. You can also print all parts seperatly. Happy printing!
Building Info
Since the engines are quite long, it might be hard to make them sit flat under the wing. Carefully bend them in place, but you might need to add a drop of superglue to the front.
