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.
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.
Expect a satisfying build that benefits from careful seam filling and masking for paint. The kit is glue-assembled and rewards patience with a scale-accurate final result and good surface detail for weathering work.
