{"product_id":"8001283901932","title":"1\/72 US Marine Corps AV-8B Harrier II","description":"■Product Description\u003cbr\u003e\r\n ●A military aircraft that made history, the Marine Corps' Harrier\u003cbr\u003eThis is a 1\/72 scale plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the Harrier, a V\/STOL fighter jet that made history. \u003cbr\u003eAbout the actual aircraft\u003cbr\u003eThe Harrier was born in 1966 as the world's first practical vertical takeoff and landing aircraft. The U.S. Marine Corps also considered deploying it, focusing on its ability to take off and land without the need for facilities such as well-maintained airfields. In collaboration with the United Kingdom, improvements were made to the armament capacity and range, resulting in the AV-8B Harrier II. The wings were enlarged to improve armament capacity, and the engine was a more powerful upgraded version of the Rolls-Royce Pegasus. It achieved a top speed of 1085 km\/h. It made its first flight in 1983. The U.S. Marine Corps began operating it in 1987. The AV-8B Harrier II operated by the U.S. Marine Corps was deployed and played an active role in Operation Desert Storm, the Iraq War, and the War in Afghanistan. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Model\u003cbr\u003eThis model is a 1\/72 scale plastic model assembly kit of the AV-8B Harrier II, a vertical take-off and landing carrier-based aircraft developed by the UK, improved by the US, and operated by the Marine Corps. The distinctive shape of the aircraft is reproduced in a finished length of 190mm. The distinctive jet exhaust can be moved to either a rearward or downward position even after completion. The restrained parts configuration, typical of Italeri, ensures a smooth assembly. Of course, the cockpit is realistically modeled, including the instrument panel and control stick. A refueling probe is also included as an optional part. Four marking options are included, including US Marine Corps markings. \u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\n ■Product Specifications\u003cbr\u003e\r\n Manufacturer: ITALERI\u003cbr\u003e\r\n Item No: IT90193\u003cbr\u003e\r\n Product Specifications: Features\u003cbr\u003e●Reproduces the AV-8B Harrier vertical takeoff and landing aircraft in 1\/72 scale\u003cbr\u003e●Finished length is 190mm\u003cbr\u003e●Jet exhaust nozzles are movable to the rear and downward positions even after assembly\u003cbr\u003e●Markings are included from the US Marine Corps\u003cbr\u003e\r\n Size: Finished product size Total length approx. 190mm\u003cbr\u003ePackage size 290×190×45mm\u003cbr\u003e\r\n Scale: 1\/72\u003cbr\u003e\r\n JAN: 8001283901932\u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\n ■Remarks\u003cbr\u003e\r\n ・Some items are available in limited quantities, so please forgive us if they are out of stock. \u003cbr\u003e・Release dates, prices, product names, etc. may change without notice.
