1/48 AH-1G Cobra ‘Over Vietnam with M-35 Gun System’ Hi-Tech Kit

The Bell AH-1G Cobra was the first mass-produced attack helicopter designed specifically for direct support of ground troops. The Vietnam War demonstrated the necessity of deploying a fast, agile and heavily armed helicopter, and the Cobra filled this role with extraordinary effectiveness. The aircraft became a symbol of American air support during the conflict and served in many variants.

One of the most notable modifications was the installation of the M-35 Gun System - a powerful 20mm M195 cannon with a rotary barrel combined with an advanced targeting system. This system greatly increased the helicopter's firepower and allowed for precision strikes even against fortified targets.

The Special Hobby 1/48 AH-1G Cobra 'Over Vietnam with M-35 Gun System' Hi-Tech Kit offers a highly crafted kit with resin and etched parts that push the level of detail to the limit. Included are detailed interior, cockpit, armament and landing gear parts. There are also decals for U.S. Army machines deployed in Vietnam, including machines with distinctive markings and battle wear.

This model will please the discerning modeler with an interest in American equipment from the Vietnam War and well crafted kits with a high level of detail.

Package does not include paint or glue needed for assembly.
