Product description

The ICM UH-1C Huey Gunship - US Attack Helicopter model kit, part number HC-ICM48293, is a 1:48 scale plastic aircraft kit depicting the dedicated fire-support version of the Bell Huey used by U.S. Army aviation units during the Vietnam War. Developed from the earlier multipurpose UH-1 design, the UH-1C was introduced for the gunship role and featured a more powerful engine and wider main rotor blades to improve performance and manoeuvrability.

The UH-1C entered service in June 1965 and was used to support ground forces, secure landing zones and conduct night operations. A principal armament arrangement was the XM21 system, combining two six-barrel 7.62 mm M134 Miniguns with pods for 70 mm unguided rockets. This kit provides multiple weapons loadout options, allowing the finished model to represent different configurations of the Huey gunship.

Kit Features

The kit includes a 3D instrument panel decal, detailed sprues and assembly instructions. Full-colour painting guides and decals are provided for three Vietnam War marking options, giving the modeller a choice of historically themed finishes. With 186 parts and a finished length of 335 mm, the model presents the distinctive proportions and equipment of this US attack helicopter in a format suited to aircraft model displays.
