The “Huey” must surely be one of, if not the most, recognizable helicopters in history. The new kit represents a UH-1N, a twin-engine version of the Huey. This kit easily builds into a UH-1N Gunship flown by the U.S. Marines. As a gunship it possesses considerable firepower - weaponry includes 2.75-inch rocket pods and GAU-17 7.62mm miniguns. This medium military helicopter has been carefully researched and cleverly engineered to produce a highly detailed scale model. Even the tiny rivets, so much a feature of the fuselage, are minutely rendered. Glazed parts are rendered in clear plastic, while high-quality Cartograf decals show off the finished gunship to perfection. The UH-1N has served in numerous conflicts such as the Gulf War and Iraq.
