The B-52H Stratofortress represents a major achievement in strategic bomber design. Developed by Boeing from 1955, it served as a stalwart of the United States Air Force Strategic Air Command during the Cold War. The H model brings later technical changes such as upgraded engines, improved range and modernised avionics and defensive systems.
Italeri's 1/72 rendition condenses the B-52H's complexity into a manageable scale. Builders will find it rewarding to reproduce the aircrafts long fuselage and characteristic wing layout while adding period-accurate finishes.
The parts are engineered to reflect the bomber's external features and mechanical details. With careful assembly and finishing, the kit makes a convincing display model suitable for cabinets and dioramas.
