1/48 OV-10A Bronco, US Attack Aircraft
ICM 1/48 OV-10A Bronco is a plastic kit of the American light attack aircraft of the Vietnam War. It contains 242 parts and decals for US Navy, USAF and USMC aircraft. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The OV-10A Bronco was designed as a light multi-role attack aircraft: it struck ground targets, provided close air support, flew reconnaissance and also served for forward observation and target marking. In Vietnam it was used intensively by the US Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps.
The Bronco covered Army, Marine Corps and Special Forces units and patrolled areas where Vietnamese forces operated. It often took over missions previously flown by helicopters – less manoeuvrable, but with a larger payload and less vulnerable to small-arms fire.
The ICM kit in 1/48 scale has 242 parts; the finished model is 264 mm long with a 254 mm wingspan. The decals cover aircraft of VAL-4 “Black Ponies” (Binh Thuy, 1971), VMO-6 (Quang Tri, 1969), the USAF 20th TASS (Da Nang, 1972) and VMO-2 (Da Nang, 1969 and 1970). Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
Nationality: USA. Period: Cold War.
