Overview of the Hasegawa 1/72 AV-8B Harrier II model

The Hasegawa 1/72 AV-8B Harrier II presents a faithful miniature of the U.S. Marine Corps attacker. The small-scale kit preserves the Harrier II's V/STOL character and is aimed at modellers wanting an authentic subject for building and display.

Accurate moulding and features

Careful moulding reproduces the aircrafts panel lines and cockpit area, providing a good base for painting and detailing. The kit parts reflect the Harrier II profile and are suited to precise finishing techniques.

Construction and finishing pointers

For a first detailed project it may be challenging but rewarding. Beginners should tackle simpler kits first, or allow extra time to learn trimming, filling and paint techniques required here.
Using decal setting solution will help conform markings to panel lines and surface detail. Apply on a gloss base and use a soft brush to ease the decal into recesses for a painted-on look.
Yes, the kit allows for a landing gear down display. Ensure wheel bays are painted before final assembly and consider a small stand if you prefer a take-off pose.
