Hey all! This was actually completed sometime in August, but here it is finally being posted. This is the ancient Airfix 1/76 scale Russian Zil SAM-2 transport truck.I built it all out of the box and will hopefully someday be added to my SAM-2 layout: Thank you for looking in, comments are welcome.

Those old airfix kits can be a bit of a bear and lacking, but you got this one looking good. I'm surprised a missile that big wouldn't have some markings though.

Couldn't find any pics with many markings on them when I looked around some had numbers and one had a hand painted name... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-75_Dvina

Thank you Jed!
Thank you Ducky! Yeah, some of the more recent releases of thee missiles by Hobby Boss for instance do have a full sheet of stenciling for the SA-2 SAMS. This basic kit released in the early 70's didn't have that much information to go on so they were left out. If there were a chance that I could get six of those stencil sheets; I could stencil all seven of my SA-2's but until then, I'm leaving them clean.
Joe, thanks for that link. I might even consider adding that name to one of mine.
