Post by: targhediferro on December 24, 2013, 12:57:18 PM

Can you identify this vehicle?  I need its name, its builders and its engine.

This is an NKL-26 Aerosan by Trumpeter.  It is powered by an M-11G aircooled aircraft engine (5 cylinder radial).

Not that according to my source.

Not here to steal a point...Nearly everything said in the answer is correct, The vehicle is indeed a NKL 26 on wheels rather than the more usual skis.It was powered by a Shvetsov M11 G engine. The picture appears to be from a russian construction kit by AMG.
Trumpeter is the name of another kit manufacturer.

Well, I have to check my source, because I had another name but now I suppose both of you are right;  actually, Sixtee5cuda was so near the correct answer that I would have locked it even if Trumpeter shouldn't be correct, so I'll give him the point if I will check that my source is wrong.  Sorry Hiawatha.

Ok, my source has two pictures with crossed captions!  It's indeed a NKL 26 Aerosan with Shvetsov M11G engine.  A point for Sixtee5cuda.
