Historical description and model features

The Nieuport N.28 C-1 is a single-seat French fighter aircraft from the end of World War I, which became the first fighter type to see combat service with the United States Air Service. The design was created in 1917 by the Nieuport company, with its principal area of operations being the French battlefields in 1918. The aircraft was known for its exceptional maneuverability and performance, although in the initial period of service it posed technical challenges related to its wing covering. Before the famous Spad XIII was introduced, the Nieuport N.28 was the primary aircraft of the "Flying Tigers" pilots.

The 1/72 scale model from Revell stands out for its excellent attention to detail – from subtle panel lines, through the cockpit, to the distinctive wing shaping. The kit allows you to build an accurate replica of the aircraft, and thanks to the high-quality decals, you can finish it in the historical markings of either American or French units.
