This is a 1/72 A-10 Warthog Plastic Airplane Model Kit.
This Revell-Monogram SnapTite kit is for level 1 modelers, ages 8 and up.
Created specifically to support troops in a ground attack role, the A-10
is incredibly maneuverable. It is slow for a modern jet aircraft, with a top
speed of only 423 MPH, but it can carry up to eight tons of ordinance to
deliver the knockout punch to enemy armored vehicles.
1/72 scale plastic kit is for static display.
36 detailed gray parts that snap together - no glue necessary; no
paint necessary.
Straight, flat wings allow the A-10 to carry a heavy load of
weaponry.
Twin turbofan engines are mounted outside and above the rear
fuselage.
The A-10's main weapon is the GAU-8A 30mm cannon found in the nose.
Weapons carried by the bulky A-10 are found under the wings on a
multitude of hardpoints.
The A-10 pilot sits in the extreme nose of the airplane for
visibility purposes; the cockpit is a single-seat area.
The A-10 is designed to remain flyable even if large areas have been
damaged or blown off.
Bonus stickers are included, which can be placed anywhere on the
model; decals are of the peel-and-stick variety.
Also included is an "Adventures Built" collector poster.
