Hasegawa 1/72 B5 Sea Harrier FRS Mk1 by Hasegawa 00235

This Hasegawa 1/72 B5 Sea Harrier FRS Mk1 kit faithfully models the compact British jump jet. The sprues contain neatly defined PS parts that allow construction of a convincing small-scale representation of the original aircraft.

Brief service note

The Sea Harrier FRS Mk1 is well known for its VTOL capability and notable service in the early 1980s. Its naval role and combat history make it a compelling subject for scale modellers interested in that era.

Build and finish advice

With detailed cockpit and surface paneling, the kit rewards careful assembly. Expect to perform some trimming and seam work, and plan for masking and multiple paint layers to highlight the Sea Harrier's subtle details.

Presentation and collection value

At 1/72 scale the completed model offers a neat display with accurate proportions. It complements other 1/72 naval types and looks particularly effective with period-accurate markings and light weathering.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: PS Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Optional for enhanced realism
The kit is best tackled by modellers with some experience of small-scale builds. Attention to tiny parts and neat paintwork will improve the end result.
Aftermarket decals and resin cockpit sets are available and can enhance realism, but the box parts provide a solid base for a clean, authentic finish.
Use a light coat of clear varnish to seal decals and paint layers. Handle the model with care while drying and avoid heavy polishing to preserve fine surface detail.
