Guessing that you are looking for 1/48 scale?  I don't know of any female Russian pilot figures in kits or AM sets, but a little scratchbuilding and/or putty work would make it easy to convert a male pilot figure to a female; in flying clothes all that would be required is some longer hair and...uh...some other anatomical features.

Do a little research and find some pictures of the pilot you want to model and go from there. Good luck!

Does anybody know if there are available any model figures of Russian women pilots in WWII such as the ace Lilya Litvyak? I don't mind if the likeness is not right, because basically what I'm looking for are generic models of Russian women pilots for a diorama. Apparently some of the PE-2 bombers were crewed by women too. Now that would be an idea for a diorama, an all-female crew leaving their PE-2, safely back at base after a mission.
