Hasegawa 1/72 AH-1S Cobra - J.G.S.D.F scale kit

This Hasegawa injection-molded 1/72 kit captures the AH-1S Cobra's streamlined profile and key external features. It appeals to builders who want a compact, authentic-looking attack helicopter for display.

Service Background and Scale Interest

The AH-1S contributed to modern attack helicopter tactics with its slim fuselage and effective armament. The model reproduces essential forms and is rewarding to assemble for modellers focused on military rotorcraft accuracy.

Assembly Guidance and Display Tips

Dry-fit parts before gluing and use fine sanding to tidy joins. Accurate painting and decal placement will make the model stand out in a collection or mixed aircraft display.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Injection-molded plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Required for finishing
Basic modelling tools are recommended: sprue cutters, hobby knife, sanding sticks, plastic cement, tweezers and fine brushes. Optional items include an airbrush and primer for a cleaner finish.
Light weathering can add realism, especially around panel lines and the weapons bay. Use washes and dry-brushing sparingly to avoid obscuring fine details.
Yes, 1/72 scale works well with other jet and rotorcraft models at the same scale. Consider a small diorama base or display risers to show different flight attitudes.
