1/72 Aircraft Weapons Set for Modern Jets - Hasegawa 35012  [HA-35012]

Hasegawa 35012 - X72-12 1/72 Weapons Pack for Modern Jets (U.S. Special Bombs & LANTIRN Pods)

This 1/72 scale accessory set represents U.S. special-purpose bombs and LANTIRN targeting/navigation pods intended for external carriage on compatible aircraft models in the same scale.

Historically, LANTIRN (Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night) pods were introduced to improve low-altitude navigation and infrared targeting during night operations. U.S. special bombs and related stores include a variety of guided and unguided munitions adapted to provide precision or specialized effects for strike missions over recent decades. These items have been fitted to multiple tactical fighter platforms to broaden mission capability.

The set recreates a selection of externally mounted stores for display applications. Parts are sized for 1/72 scale pylons and hardpoints; modelers should verify fit against specific airframes. Surface detailing and proportions prioritize visible accuracy on display models rather than internal mechanical complexity. Painting, seam work, and rigging may be required to match particular service loads or weathered appearances.

A compact external-store pack for 1/72 aircraft that adds mission-specific loadouts and display options to completed builds and collections.
