Hasegawa 07252 1/48 EA-18G Growler Scale Model Kit Special Edition  [HA-07252]

Hasegawa 1/48 EA-18G Growler Model Summary

The Hasegawa 1/48 EA-18G Growler kit captures the look of the electronic warfare derivative of the F/A-18F with realistic external fittings and surface detail. The moulding quality highlights panel lines and equipment bays typical of the Growler, making it appealing to builders who study contemporary military aircraft.

Construction Notes and Presentation

At 1/48 scale the kit gives a satisfying level of detail without becoming unwieldy. Builders should expect to spend time on careful alignment of pods and antennae to properly represent the aircrafts mission systems, resulting in a strong display piece once painted and decaled.

Role and Modelling Relevance

The EA-18G Growler is widely used for electronic suppression roles, supporting strike and patrol operations by degrading enemy sensors. This kit provides a hands-on way to examine that capability through scale modelling.
