The underside of the box shows the markings for just one machine - that of the 12 GIAP 6 IAK, Moscow Air Defence Zone, 1942 The Instruction sheet, Decals and the bagged sprues. Unfortunately the clear parts are bagged with the main sprue and not separately.    

Aftermarket Extras
Eduard photoetch set 48-321 for "Jak-7" Eduard photoetch set 48-321 for "Jak-7" Gremlin Models resin Correction Set for the Yak-7 Gremlin Models Yak-7 resin Correction Set
One Eduard photoetch set 48-321 for "Jak-7" in their new-style packaging that is 'one-size-fits-all'. The same Eduard set in their original packaging. There are three of these yielding four in total - one for each of the Yak-7's I have. The Gremlin Models resin Correction Set for the Yak-7. It says that if you use this set then you can make an "average" (early) version Yak-7. It also overcomes serious problems with the kit supplying changes to the front fuselage (engine) cross section and canopy shape.
Gremlin Models Yak-7 resin Correction Set Gremlin Models Yak-7 resin Correction Set Moskit Blast Tubes for 7.62mm ShKAS machine guns for the Yak-7A Moskit Exhaust Pipe sets for Yak-7
The Gremlin set includes the deeper nose oil cooler, new fuselage halves, new canopy and rudder. These resin replacements are far more expensive than the ICM base kit. Moskit Blast Tubes for 7.62mm ShKAS machine guns for the Yak-7A although you will have to display this with the engine panels off to see them. I presently have five of the Moskit Exhaust Pipe sets for Yak-7 but the set also fits the Yak-1 so I would need seven in total if you include my Yak-1 collection.
