This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.
From the manufacturer:
The MiG-32 "Foxhound" was developoed as the replacement of the MiG-25 "Foxbat;" the prototype Ye-155MP took its first flight on 16 September 1975. As the heaviest fighter/interceptor in the world, the MiG-31 is much heavier than other similar aircraft. At the same time, two powerful D-30-F6 engines and a stronger airframe gave it a top speed to Mach 2.8 at high altitude and Mach 1.23 at low altitude.
The MiG-31B were put out under the threat of the Western countries in the 1980s; they can be regarded as a mixture of the MiG-31BS which was developed from the basic MiG-31 sans suffixe, and the MiG-31DZ, the IFR system testbed; however, a series of new avionics and WCS made it much more efficient than any other version.
The latest upgrade version of the Foxhound is the MiG-31BM, the new multi-role version which was developed from the MiG-31B and the MiG-31BS. The programme started in 1997. The new version MiG-BM is no loner an interceptor only; they can carry a variety of air-to-surface weapons such as the Kh-25, Kh-29, Kh-31, Kh-59, etc.
Molded in gray plastic; includes photo-etched parts and decals for 2 versions.
