Trumpeter 1/48 A-37A Dragonfly: Kit Introduction

The Trumpeter 1/48 A-37A Dragonfly kit is a compact but thorough model of the light ground-attack jet. It recreates the aircrafts low-level attack profile and compact silhouette in 1/48 scale for a convincing display piece.

Conversion from Trainer to Attack Jet

Based on the T-37 trainer, the A-37A was upgraded with more powerful engines and weapon stations for combat duties. This kit highlights those adaptations with panel lines and attachment points that mirror the real aircraft.

Build Advice and Finishing

Absolutely. The 1/48 scale makes it compatible with many contemporary and Vietnam-era subjects, making it a good candidate for mixed formation displays.
