Italeri 2725 - 1/48 A-10C Blacksnakes: Scale Model Brief

The Italeri 2725 - 1/48 A-10C Blacksnakes kit captures the A-10C Thunderbolt II in accurate scale, emphasising the aircraft's stout fuselage and gun housing. The parts set offers clear opportunities for cockpit detailing and authentic external features at 1/48 scale.

Service Role and Authentic Detail

The A-10 was designed around survivability and the GAU-8 cannon for close air support. This model reflects those design priorities, showing the twin turbofan arrangement and distinct nose shape that make the A-10 instantly recognisable.
