<description>Let L-13/TZ-13 Blanik &#039;in Military Service&#039; (2 kits in 1 box) (RAF, DOSAAF, Italian AF, Uruguayan AF, Lithuanian AF, Brazilian AF)
	
The L-13 Blanik is a two-seater glider produced by the Czechoslovak company Let Kunovice. Designed at the VZLU Aeronautical Research and Test Establishment in Prague in 1954-56, its prototype first flew in March 1956. It is an all-metal monoplane, with the fuselage of a semi-monocoque construction and high set wings with characteristic forward sweep. Its cockpit is enclosed by a two-piece acrylic glass canopy. The flaps and control surfaces are fabric covered and the fuselage is provided with a single-wheel semi-retractable landing gear and a fixed tail skid.
The L-13 entered production in 1958 and quickly gained popularity as an inexpensive and durable type, which was easy to fly and operate. It was widely adopted in the former Eastern Bloc countries and was also exported in large numbers to Western Europe, North and South America. In total, more than 2600 Blanik gliders had been produced by 1978, while a small batch of a modernised L-13A variant was built in 1981-82. It became the most numerous and widely used trainer glider in the world.

In early 1960s, the Soviet Navy command was urgently needed a fast military transport capable of carrying a large payload on the shore of Caspian Sea and Black Sea. The Minister of Defense recognized a Wing-In-Ground effect vehicle which basically allowed for a greater weight aircraft to utilized the low-altitude lift over water for increased range and better fuel economy. As Alexeyev&#039;s Central Hydrofoil Design Bureau conceived some WIG designs at the time, the firm received support from military to build the test platform, the KM Ekranoplan. The construction was started In 1963. The KM made its first flight in 1967 with Alexeyev himself in control. In the course of testing the the optimum flight altitude in WIG mode proved to be 4 to 14m. At that time the KM was the largest flying vehicle in the world. The KM performed as a testbed until it crashed due to pilot error in 1980. It proved valuable in evolving the scientific basis for the design, construction and testing of ekranoplans..
