About This Item
This brand new 1/48 scale plastic model kit of the Fairchild Republic A-10 Warthog (Thunderbolt II) Aircraft (Level 4) by Revell features 165 detailed parts and comes in the manufacturer’s original unopened packaging with vintage-style box design. The kit includes colorful decal artwork, a detailed interior with a seated pilot and boarding ladder, and parts molded in light gray unless otherwise indicated. It comes with decals for "LET'S ROLL," the 355th Wing/12AF West Coast A-10 Demo Team 2003, "NORRIS THE PLAYHOG" 104th TFS Maryland ANG, and Sentry Independence, Volk Field Wisconsin, 1989. The model also features ECM pod, cluster bombs, napalm tanks, Maverick missiles, and a centerline drop tank. Paint and cement are required but not included. Once assembled, the model measures approximately 13 inches in length and 14.625 inches in wingspan, accurately representing the highly survivable A-10, built around the 30mm GAU-8 Gatling gun, capable of carrying immense weapons loads and withstanding direct hits, reflecting its close air support role in conflicts from Desert Storm to Operation Iraqi Freedom.
