Revell 04938 Bell OH-58D Kiowa Warrior (1/72)

Revell 04938 Bell OH-58D Kiowa Warrior is a high-quality plastic model kit in 1/72 scale, designed for enthusiasts of military helicopters and fans of precise modeling. This set allows you to recreate the famous American reconnaissance and combat support helicopter, based on the Bell 206A JetRanger design, in a variant equipped with advanced fire control systems and modern avionics.

The Bell OH-58D Kiowa Warrior was introduced into service with the United States Army in the 1980s, mainly during the Cold War period and in modern times. It saw widespread use during armed conflicts, including Operation Desert Storm, the intervention in Yugoslavia, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Thanks to the mast-mounted optoelectronic sensor above the rotor, the Kiowa Warrior gained effective reconnaissance capability and precise weapon guidance (e.g., Hellfire missiles), while remaining difficult to detect by the enemy.

The Revell model features a highly detailed representation of the structural details of the fuselage, rotor, and cockpit equipment. The kit includes plastic sprues, clear parts (cockpit and sensor mast glazing), decals for authentic US Army markings from its service period, as well as a detailed assembly instruction. The product does not contain glue or paints, allowing modelers to select and personalize these components according to their own preferences.
