A-10 Thunderbolt II Development and Combat Use

The A-10 Thunderbolt II was developed by Fairchild Republic in the 1970s to fulfil the US Air Force requirement for a survivable close air support platform. It features twin General Electric turbofan engines and the notable 30 mm GAU-8/A Avenger rotary cannon. The type saw significant action during the 1991 Gulf War, demonstrating its specialised anti-armor role. The Italeri 1376S kit presents the aircraft with detailed moulding and supplies four decal options reflecting Gulf War markings.

Scale: 1/72
Decal Pack: 4 variants
Kit Style: Detailed assembly kit
Paint and Cement Needed: Yes

Is the cockpit detailed?

The kit includes basic cockpit detail appropriate to 1/72 scale, with options to enhance using aftermarket sets for greater accuracy.

Are the landing gear parts robust?

Landing gear components are moulded for correct fit but require careful handling during assembly and painting to avoid stress on small struts.

Can this kit be displayed with weapons fitted?

Yes, the model can be built with external stores; consult the instructions for attachment points and choose appropriate paint and weathering for realism.

How accurate are the provided decals?

The decals are printed to represent period liveries accurately, though careful application and sealing are recommended to achieve the best finish.
