The Modelcollect UA72208 B-52H Early Type plastic model kit represents one of the world’s most famous strategic bombers, the Boeing B-52H Stratofortress, in its early version used by the United States Air Force (U.S.A.F). The model is produced in the popular 1/72 scale, which allows for both a high level of detail and an impressive size of the finished replica, making it an attractive display piece for a shelf or an airfield diorama.

The original B-52 Stratofortress is a long-range strategic bomber whose production began in the 1950s. The B-52H variant entered service in 1961 during the Cold War era and remains active in the U.S. military fleet to this day.
