Tamiya Fairchild Republic A-10A Thunderbolt II® [1:48]Item No: 61028

This 1/48 scale plastic assembly kit recreates the legendary A-10A Thunderbolt II®, the USAF’s close-air support workhorse that first saw combat in the 1991 Gulf War. With a finished length of 345 mm, the model faithfully captures the aircraft’s rugged airframe and distinctive straight wing, as well as its fearsome 30 mm GAU-8/A Avenger rotary cannon. The kit includes an extensive loadout of AGM-65 Maverick missiles, AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles, rocket pods, and various bomb types to replicate full mission profiles. A seated pilot figure is provided, plus five marking schemes covering USAF units of the Gulf War era. Glue and paint not included.
