Zvezda has shared images of their new project, a 1/72 Iskander 9K720 short-range ballistic missile system
The Iskander weights 4615 kg and carries a warhead of approximately 800 kg, with a range of 500 km

It is mounted on a 9P78-1 Transporter/Erector/Launcher, an eight-wheeled heavy truck.

Although there are only available 3D images, these show a very detailed model.

LOL. Yeah, me too. But 1/72 will still be ok.

I'll just have to build the rest of the stash while sitting here hoping that some manufacturer with a music instrument in the name and logo decides that the modelling market is ready for a 1/35th scale kit. I congratulate the braille scale modellers. If it is possible to make and sell all the other large Russian vehicles then there must be a chance for an Iskander as well / Robin

I agree that someone like Trumpeter should release this subject in 1/35th!

72nd scale is fine by me. I am buying zvezda's SS-25 Topol which is also 72nd scale.

Now a SS-25 in 1/35 would be something...I can dream. Andy

well, considering the detail shown on the CAD images, I would say it should not be that difficult to use it for 1/35 also...

1/35TH they could not produce enough to handle demand, im still trying to find the 1/43 diecast version
