ICM 48901 1/48 MiG-25 RBT High Speed Recon Jet Model

The ICM 48901 kit captures the imposing lines of the MiG-25 RBT in 1/48 scale, offering parts that represent the aircraft's unique geometry and mission equipment. It is a strong choice for builders focused on Cold War military aviation.

Why the MiG-25 Stood Out

The MiG-25 gained attention for its exceptional top speed and its ability to operate at very high altitudes, with documented performance above Mach 3. The RBT was adapted for reconnaissance duties, fitted to collect visual and electronic data at range. This model reflects the features tied to that role.

Build Complexity and Finishing Notes

Expect a build that rewards careful preparation and steady paintwork. Decals are supplied for authentic markings; masking and thin coats of paint will help reproduce the jet's sharp lines for display.

Is this kit accurate for a museum-style display?

The kit provides accurate external shapes and markings suitable for museum-quality display after careful painting and weathering. For extreme accuracy, consult reference photos for paint tones and marking placement.

Are aftermarket upgrades recommended?

Aftermarket resin or photo-etch sets can improve cockpit detail and small external fittings, but the kit is complete as supplied for a strong-looking model out of the box.
