Italeri 1/72 A-129 Mangusta: Compact Display Ready Model

This Italeri 1/72 A-129 Mangusta kit recreates the helicopter's streamlined form in a compact scale, making it a practical choice for collectors and builders with limited display space. The moulding captures key external shapes suited to weathering and decal work.

Service background and upgrades

First fielded in the 1990s, the A-129 Mangusta incorporated night vision and anti-tank systems to meet modern threats. Its upgrades and deployments give modellers a solid reference for authentic marking schemes.

Kit highlights and finishing tips

Parts are organised to reproduce the helicopter's lines and equipment housings, letting builders focus on panel shading and realistic paint effects. The 1/72 scale is forgiving for small corrections and offers a neat final display piece.
