Academy 1/48 A-10C 75th FS Flying Tigers Scale Model

The Academy 12348 A-10C captures the character of the 75th Fighter Squadron Flying Tigers in 1/48 scale. The kit focuses on accurate panel lines and livery, giving modellers a hands-on build that mirrors the aircrafts silhouette and mission equipment.

Operational Legacy

The A-10C Thunderbolt II is prized for survivability and its GAU-8 Avenger cannon, traits that defined its role in close air support missions. This model represents those operational strengths while highlighting the Flying Tigers paint and squadron markings.

Build Notes for Hobbyists

Suited to intermediate to advanced builders, the Academy 1/48 A-10C kit includes finely moulded parts that reward careful assembly and painting. When finished, the model makes a strong display piece for aviation collections and dioramas.
