The under fuselage search radar has been removed, and the aircraft is equipped with an under fuselage winch pod for a several kilometer long trailing wire antenna. It has a communications antenna in a spike fairing that project forward from the fin tip, and a trailing wire antenna (and associated winch package) located below the belly. Production Tu-142MRs are more like the Tu-142M-Z, with an under nose sensor package and ECM system antennas underneath the rear fuselage. Unlike all the other maritime 'Bears,' the production Tu-142MR has a solid radome in place of the usual nose glazing where a limited-range search\/weather radar is probably housed to compensate for the lack of a Korshun system. Only a small number of Tu-142MRs were produced, and the prototype was delivered to the 76th Regiment along with early production aircraft. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:72\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 691 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWingspan: 695 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal Parts: 200+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal Sprues: 9 sprues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Trumpeter Scale Models","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233195491541,"sku":"TRP1609","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/trumpeter-scale-models-1609-1-72-russian-tupolev-tu-142mr-bear-j-bomber-model-kit.jpg?v=1742227561","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterosehobbies.com\/products\/trumpeter-scale-models-1609-1-72-russian-tupolev-tu-142mr-bear-j-bomber-model-kit","provider":"White Rose Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
