Description

La necesidad de una aeronave capaz de dar escolta eficaz a los helicópteros de transporte y asalto en Vietnam condujo al desarrollo de una versión especializada basada en la mecánica y diseño del ubicuo UH-1, el AH-1 Huey Cobra, como medida transitoria hasta disponer de un aparato más sofisticado. Tan transitorio fue que lleva más de treinta años de servicio, y los que le quedan. La versión S fue la definitiva en entrar en servicio en el US Army, aunque ciertas modificaciones posteriores ampliaron el número de denominaciones. Ha sido exporado varios países. La maqueta. De buena calidad y de aspecto muy limpio, medianamente detallada y con líneas de paneles y remaches en fino relieve. Armamento de misiles TOW. Incluye piezas optativas para las actualizaciones Step-II y Step-III. Mezclando las piezas del Step-II y el AH-1J de la misma marca es posible hacer un excelente AH-1G; y ello pudiendo seguir haciendo el Step-III completo. Sin desperdicio, vaya. Las calcas permiten hacer el Step-III en esquema del US Army o de las JASDF y el Step-II de las JASDF. Peso: 160 g.

The need of giving adequate support and escort to the assault helicopters was covert with the introduction of gunships helicopters. The AH-1 Huey Cobra, based on the UH-1 mechanics, was a crash-program, a temporary measure until more advanced designs were developed. So 'temporary' that is still in service after more than thirty years and going on. The kit. An accurate one, clean and crisp, although moderately detailed. Rivets and panel lines of raised type. Ordnance includes TOW missile launchers. Choice of parts for the upgrades Step-II and Step-III. If you build the later you may use the spare parts to convert the AH-1J, of the same firm, into the best AH-1G in 1/72 very easily. Decals for US Army and JASDF Step-III and JASDF Step-II schemes. Weight: 160 g.
