Historical overview: The Boeing V-22 Osprey is an innovative tiltrotor aircraft (with variable rotor geometry), used by the US Army and US Marine Corps from the late 1980s to the present day. The machine can take off and land vertically (like a helicopter), as well as reach speeds typical of transport aircraft. It has been used during operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, among others; and is crucial for rescue and assault missions.

Product advantages: The AW72341 resin wheels by Armory Models perfectly reproduce the real tire structure and the vehicle's distinctive usage features, such as the flattening under the weight of the machine. They allow you to create an exceptionally realistic diorama or display model. Precision castings eliminate the need for time-consuming processing and detail corrections often required with standard plastic parts.

Target group: This product is especially recommended for advanced aircraft modelers and for those who want to elevate the realism of their models. Assembly difficulty is rated at 3/5 – the set requires basic resin handling skills and some experience in modeling.

We highly recommend the Armory Models AW72341 set to all aircraft modeling enthusiasts who want to enrich their Osprey models with world-class detail!
