Special Hobby 72417 SMB-2 Super Mystere Duo Pack + książka 1/72 is a unique set for modelers, allowing for the assembly of two versions of the iconic SMB-2 Super Mystere jet aircraft in the popular 1/72 scale. The model depicts the legendary French fighter and fighter-bomber jet from the Cold War era, primarily operated by France but also by Israel and Honduras. It is particularly notable in aviation history as the first mass-produced supersonic fighter in Western Europe, playing a key role during such conflicts as the Six-Day War (1967) and the Yom Kippur War (1973).

The set is made from the highest quality plastic, offering an exceptional level of detail with finely rendered panels, panel lines, and intricate parts of the fuselage, wings, and tail. The set includes two complete sprues, enabling the construction of two aircraft, as well as a detailed illustrated assembly instruction. An added value in this edition is the included book, providing in-depth historical and technical knowledge about the SMB-2 Super Mystere – an ideal support for model assembly as well as a valuable resource for military aviation enthusiasts.
