A large-scale 1:8,  70 centimetres tall model of Lunniy Korabl or LK-3 Lunar Lander built to compete with Apollo Lunar Module (Space race era).

It was intended to be launched using the N-1 rocket. The LK lander was ready as well as the flight crew but it never made it to the Moon because of the N-1 launch failures, although, several unmanned LK were flown in Earth orbit.

After the first human Moon landing were achieved by the United States, the Soviet Union cancelled both the N1 Rocket and the LK Lunar Module programs without any further development.

Large, extremely detailed, very high level of man-made craftsmanship. This model can be a real centerpeice of any collection or catalogue. It has never been seen to offer this large scale.

LK spacecraft model consisted of the lunar module itself and the Block E propulsion system. Structurally, the spacecraft subdivided into the Lunar Landing Aggregate, (Lunnyi Posadochnyi Agregat, LPA) and the Lunar Ascent Vehicle, (Lunnyi Vzletnyi Apparat, LVA). LPA consisted of a lattice-structured main body and a four-legged lunar landing device, (Lunnoe Posadochnoe Ustroistvo, LPU). Moving antennas and stairs.

The model made of composite and metal.

Extremely Rare Model. Very fine condition.
