Overview of the Italeri 1/72 A-6E Tram Intruder

The Italeri 1/72 A-6E Tram Intruder kit invites modellers to tackle a compact replica of a notable carrier attack aircraft. Originating from Grumman in the 1960s, the Intruder replaced older attack types and evolved into the A-6E with enhanced avionics and weapon delivery systems, establishing it as the definitive attack version.

Operational history and modeller interest

The A-6E proved vital for carrier strike missions during the Gulf conflict, offering all-weather precision at medium ranges. The kit reproduces the airframes main lines and the twin-crew cockpit layout, which appeals to those building historically accurate hangar or carrier deck displays.

What to expect when building

This Italeri release includes a comprehensive decal sheet with two schemes and a colour instruction insert. The parts are designed for glue assembly and provide a rewarding project for modellers looking to practise paint techniques and cockpit detailing.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: PS plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Decals: Two schemes supplied
The kit is best approached by modellers with some prior glue-and-paint experience. The parts fit well, but careful masking and decal work will improve the finished appearance.
Yes, the plastic parts accept standard hobby paints, so modellers can create alternate liveries or convert the kit for different squadrons using aftermarket markings or custom painting.
The kit includes a colour instruction sheet guiding assembly and painting for the two included marking options, helping modellers follow rigging, wheel well and cockpit painting steps.
