Weapons set for Hobby Master 1:72 scale A-10s. The sets are designed to "snap-fit" onto any 1:72 A-10 from Hobby Master. It may be possible to use these weapons with other models but doing so would, in most cases, require some basic modelling skills: trimming, sanding, glueing etc.
Designed to counter criticism that the US Air Force wasn't serious enough about close air support, the A-10 Thunderbolt II was first flown on May 10, 1972. The Thunderbolt II is a single-seat attack aircraft used to protect ground forces from tanks, armored vehicles and other ground targets. Nicknamed "Warthog," the A-10 is highly maneuverable at low speeds and low altitude and is capable of short take-offs and landings. It is designed for easy maintenance-many of its parts are interchangeable between the right and left side and it can operate from bases with limited facilities. The A-10 is expected to remain in service until 2028 or beyond. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
