The USS Pegasus PHM-1 ship model in 1/200 scale by Hobby Boss is an exceptionally detailed plastic model kit designed for enthusiasts of maritime and military modeling subjects.

The USS Pegasus, the first in the series of Pegasus-class hydrofoil ships, is a modern patrol vessel ("Patrol, Hydrofoil, Missile" – PHM) that served in the United States Navy from 1977 to 1993, during the Cold War. These vessels were characterized by extraordinary speed and maneuverability, making them excellent for coastal operations, especially for combating smuggling or conducting border patrols in the Caribbean region. Initially designed for NATO operations in the North Sea and Baltic Sea regions, the program was ultimately executed solely within the American fleet.
