Scale Profile of the Sea Harrier FRS.1 by Italeri

The Sea Harrier FRS.1 combined vertical lift capability with carrier service roles. Italeri 1236 presents this aircraft in 1/72 scale so modellers can recreate its distinctive silhouette and naval markings.

Service History Overview

Introduced in the 1970s, the Sea Harrier provided close air support and fleet defence. Its performance in the Falklands highlighted the platform's manoeuvrability and tactical value.

What glue is best for PS plastic parts?

Plastic cement formulated for polystyrene works well for secure bonds. Use thin liquid cement for small seams and contact cement for bulk joins.

Should I add weathering to the model?

Light weathering can bring out panel lines and surface detail. For a service-worn look use washes and dry brushing sparingly to keep the scale effect realistic.

How accurate are the kit proportions?

The moulded parts aim to match the Sea Harrier's outline at 1/72 scale. Careful assembly and alignment are key to preserving the correct proportions.
