Russia will return to the production of the supersonic bomber TU-160 – Air & Naval Defense

The Tupolev TU-160 (1598 pieces) is a miniature of the strategic supersonic bomber developed in the former Soviet Union.

This building block model offers a detailed and impressive replica of this strategic bomber, allowing aviation enthusiasts to explore the complexities of the original design.

🛫 Product Dimensions and Structure:

  • Size: At about 72 cm in length and 80 cm in wingspan, the model provides a striking presence, ideal for display. Compared to many building block models, this replica stands out for its elongated and aerodynamic design, mirroring the original shape of the TU-160.
  • Moving components: The variable geometry wings are a key feature, as they can be opened or retracted, just like in the real model. This feature allows for simulating flight performance at both low and high speeds, being one of the main aspects of the TU-160's aerodynamic design.
  • Realistic details: The model is enriched with small details that mimic the external structure of the aircraft, including the cockpit and internal armament compartments, where the TU-160 carries its missiles.

⚙️ Product Features:

  • Material: Made from high-quality ABS plastic, the model is robust and safe, with precise fitting of parts, ensuring stability and durability. ABS is a material widely used in building blocks due to its wear resistance and ability to maintain vibrant colors.
  • Assembly complexity: With its 1598 pieces, the model requires an intermediate level of assembly skills. The instructions are usually detailed, allowing enthusiasts to build the aircraft step by step and appreciate each phase of the project's development.

📜 About the Original TU-160:

The Tupolev TU-160, known as "White Swan" or "Blackjack" by NATO, is the largest and heaviest supersonic bomber with nuclear capability ever built, and has an intercontinental range of up to 14,000 km. With four NK-32 engines that generate enough power to reach speeds of up to Mach 2 (approximately 2,000 km/h), the TU-160 is known for its ability to carry long-range missiles in internal rotary launchers.

Stressed?

It's proven that building Lego cars  helps relieve stress and anxiety.

Focusing on the pieces and the construction process calms the mind and provides a sense of tranquility.

Autotherapy

According to psychologist Sabrina Amaral, we all have an "inner sage," and before despairing over life and work events, she recommends using tools that can help access it, such as self-therapy – a technique inspired by the Socratic method, which prompts a moment of deep reflection as the person seeks answers to a series of questions.

Concentration

Building Lego models requires attention to detail. This also helps improve concentration and focus, especially in people with attention difficulties or ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).

Creativity

Building with Lego can be a way to express emotions and feelings nonverbally. The models created can reflect the builder's emotional state and provide a way to process difficult experiences.

Self-esteem

Completing a Lego car can bring a satisfying sense of accomplishment and pride. This helps boost self-esteem and self-confidence, especially for those facing challenges or difficulties in other areas of life.
