I don't think this is a 54K6E - it looks more like a later 73N6 (Baikal or Baikal-1). I have one on order, so I will try and confirm my thoughts when the plastic is actually in my hand!

Confirming this is in fact a model of a 73N6 'Baikal', not the earlier 54K6E from which it was developed. The later, more capable 73N6 (used at brigade level) can be distinguished by the additional equipment fairings/grills to the front and rear of the main control compartment. (Source and additional reading from www.ausairpower.net/APA-Rus-ADCP-CP.html). Still a very nice kit though!
