Centenary Tribute in Miniature

The Hasegawa 1/72 A-10C kit commemorates the Indiana Air National Guard's 100th year with a compact but detailed model. It offers realistic contours and surface features that appeal to modellers focused on modern military aircraft and unit markings.

Faithful Small-Scale Representation

Display and Collection Value

Once complete, this A-10C makes a compact museum-style piece that slots well into collections of modern airframes. Its anniversary scheme adds collectible interest and historical context to a shelf or diorama.
