Commemorative 1/72 A-10C Thunderbolt II

The Hasegawa 1/72 A-10C commemorative kit reproduces the Indiana Air National Guard's 100th anniversary scheme in accurate miniature. Its parts set and surface detail make it a rewarding subject for modellers who focus on modern combat aircraft and unit markings.

Miniature Authenticity

The model reflects signature A-10C characteristics, from the straight-forward airframe shape to the prominent cannon area. While simplified for 1/72, the kit delivers enough fidelity for realistic paintwork and finishing techniques.

Modelling Approach

Assembly will suit builders comfortable with glue and basic finishing methods; fine sanding and careful paint application will bring out the panel lines and textures. The kit supports a range of finishing choices, from clean museum finishes to lightly weathered operational looks.

Collection Appeal

Once finished, this model complements other contemporary combat aircraft and brings a specific historical note to a display case thanks to the anniversary markings.
