The Trumpeter H-81A-2 (AVG) Model Kit Is a Great 1/48 Scale Project, Capturing the Famous Fighter That Defended China in World War II.
Key Features
Overview
The Curtiss H-81A-2, the export version of the P-40, is one of the most iconic aircraft of World War II, thanks to its service with the 1st American Volunteer Group (AVG). Known as the "Flying Tigers," these volunteer pilots flew their rugged shark-mouthed fighters in defence of China and Burma against Japanese forces before the official U.S. entry into the war, achieving legendary status and becoming a powerful symbol of defiance.
This 1/48 scale kit from Trumpeter allows you to build a detailed replica of the famous aircraft flown by the Flying Tigers. With over 80 parts, the model features finely engraved panel lines for a realistic surface finish, a detailed cockpit, and photo-etched parts for the seatbelts. The kit includes high-quality decals to recreate the iconic shark-mouth nose art and other markings of the AVG, allowing you to build a stunning model of this historic fighter.
