1/32 RAF Harrier GR.MK7
Trumpeter 1/32 RAF Harrier GR7 is a plastic kit of the British V/STOL attack aircraft. It contains over 440 parts and a photo-etched fret. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The Harrier II is an extensively modified version of the first-generation Harrier GR1/GR3. The original aluminium alloy fuselage was replaced by a structure making wide use of composites, saving weight and increasing payload or range. An all-new one-piece wing offers about 14 per cent more area. The British version differs in its avionics, an additional missile pylon ahead of each wing landing gear leg and strengthened wing leading edges. The GR7 first flew in May 1990 and made its first operational deployment in August 1995 over the former Yugoslavia.
According to the manufacturer, the Trumpeter kit in 1/32 scale consists of over 440 parts on 22 sprues, tyres and a photo-etched fret. The fuselage is slide-moulded with authentic detail, and the omega-shaped canopy is moulded in two directions. The model is 452 mm long with a 291 mm wingspan. Decals cover aircraft of No. 20(R) Squadron and No. 4 Squadron RAF.
The grey RAF finish and densely loaded pylons give the model a purposeful, technical look. The large scale shows off the Harrier's intakes and undercarriage. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
