510001255€57.99
Référence article: 510001255 Article: 1:72 C-130 J Hercules PRM Edition Bien qu’il conserve la forme familière de l’Hercules, présente depuis de nombreuses décennies dans les ciels du monde entier, le C-130J est une machine largement repensée. Le changement le plus visible est dû à la présence des moteurs Rolls-Royce (Allison) AE2100D3 de 4.700 chevaux chacun, avec hélices à six pales en matériau composite qui garantissent un faible niveau de bruit en réduisant la consommation de carburant. Parmi les performances, ce sont le rapport d’élévation et le rayon d’action qui ont le plus bénéficié des nouveaux propulseurs. Mais une autre modification importante concerne l’avionique: en effet, le cockpit est doté de nouveaux instruments numériques ainsi que d’un vaste Head-Up Display capable de fournir constamment les informations les plus importantes au pilote, sans que ce dernier soit obligé de lever le regard de la situation extérieure. Le C-130J assume progressivement le rôle de transport moyen standard de nombreux pays de l’OTAN, parmi lesquels l’Italie.

1:72 C-27J/G.222 “Spartan”
510002819€30.99
Article number: 510002819 Product: 1:48 Henschel Hs 123 During the 1930s Henschel was tasked to design and build a ground attack aircraft that could provide support to ground troops. This led to the creation of the robust Henschel Hs-123 biplane, which was supplied to flying Squadrons in 1935. The first operational deployment of the aircraft took place during the Spanish Civil War to the Condor Legion squadrons. Due to its 880 hp BMW radial engine the Hs-123 was able to reach a top speed of 340 km/h and could carry a large offensive payload. During the Second World War, despite its proven reliability, the rapid technological evolution of aircraft design, engines and performance relegated the Hs-123 to supporting roles. On the Eastern Front for example, it was used primarily in a night-time ground attack role. Detailed plastic kit

Article number: 510000106 Product: 1:72 Caproni CA.313/314 Vintage The twin-engined Ca.313 was developed by Italian aeronautical company Caproni in the late 1930s. Inspired by the Caproni Ca. 310 Libeccio, it was used by the Regia Aeronautica during the Second World War to undertake light bombing, aerial observation and reconnaissance missions. The two 12-cylinder Isotta Fraschini Delta RC 35 engines delivered 730 hp and allowed the Caproni to attain a maximum speed of 430 km / h. The engines powered three-blade metal propellers with variable pitch. The Ca.314 version was modified for use in other roles such as ground attack, maritime reconnaissance, convoy escort and as a torpedo bomber. The "Caproni" were deployed by the Regia Aeronautica on various operational fronts in the Mediterranean and North Africa. They were also used by the Swedish Air Force and the German Luftwaffe.<br

Pendant la Deuxième Guerre Mondiale une version dédiée aux utilisations militaires a été développée: le Douglas C-47 Skytrain. Produit en grand nombre par les établissements américains, il est utilisé en mode extensif sur tous les fronts et par toutes les armées Alliées. En particulier, les C-47A utilisés par la Royal Air Force britannique et par les troupes du Commonwealth furent rebaptisés "Dakota" et furent utilisés pour les activités logistiques, le transport tactique, le lancement de parachutistes et l’évacuation des blessés. Les deux moteurs Pratt & Whitney de 1200 Chevaux étaient en mesure de faire atteindre au "Dakota" la vitesse maximale de 360 km/h et de transporter un chargement supérieur à 2500 kg.

1:72 F-104 G "Recce"
510001296€17.99
The model F-104 G Recce in 1/72 scale has a length of about 231 mm. Decals for 3 versions. The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter is one of the most famous fighters in the history of aviation and also one with the longest operational life: its history began at the end of the 50s and ended, for some air forces, in mid 2000s. Its unique airframe, with slender fuselage and very little wing surface, made this aircraft ideal as an interceptor. Thanks to the thrust of its General Electric J79-GE-11A afterburning turbojet engine, it could exceed Mach 2,2 with an excellent rate of climb. But it wasn't very maneuverable and difficult to pilot.The F-104G Starfighter was produced on license by several European aviation industries. From the mid 60s, it became the standard interceptor for many NATO countries including Italy, Germany, Holland, Greece, and Turkey. The armament was basically the same found on previous versions, with a 20mm Vulcan cannon and the option to fit under the wings air-to-air missiles, bombs, or additional fuel tanks to increase the airplane's range.With time, reconnaissance duties were added to the traditional interceptor service. The F-104G was therefore fitted with a dedicated "Orpheus" reconnaissance external pod that gave excellent operational results.
