Details:

Bring modern V/STOL combat aviation to your collection with the Italeri AV-8B Harrier II (90193). This iconic Anglo-American strike aircraft represents the second generation of the famous Harrier “Jump Jet” family, designed for short take-off and vertical landing operations from aircraft carriers, amphibious assault ships, and improvised forward airstrips. Its unique capability allows it to operate without traditional runways, making it a highly flexible close air support and ground attack platform.

Developed from the original Harrier concept, the AV-8B introduced a redesigned wing, improved avionics, and greater payload capacity, significantly enhancing combat performance. It has been widely operated by the United States Marine Corps, as well as international users including Spain and Italy, and has seen extensive operational service in modern conflicts.

This detailed plastic model kit accurately captures the distinctive shape of the AV-8B, including its vectored thrust nozzles, tandem landing gear configuration, and compact fuselage design. Designed for intermediate modellers, it offers a rewarding build with finely moulded surface detail and multiple authentic marking options.
