This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.
From the manufacturer:
The SU-9's fuselage and tail surfaces resembled those of the Su-7, but unlike the swept wing of that aircraft, the "Fishpot" used a 53-degree delta wing with conventional slab tailplanes.
The Su-9 had primitive R1L radar in the shock cone, and was armed with four K-5 (AA-1 "Alkali") beam-riding air-to-air missiles. Like all beam-riders, the K-5 was so limited as to be nearly useless for air-to-air combat. Unlike the Su-7 and later Su-15, no Su-9 carried cannon armament, although two fuselage pylons were reserved for the carriage of drop tanks.
Molded in gray and clear plastic; includes decals for two versions.
