Hasegawa 1/72 Sea Harrier FRS Mk.1 00235 Plastic Model Kit

Hasegawa - 1/72 Sea Harrier FRS Mk.1

The Sea Harrier was the naval version of the V/STOL Harrier that was developed from the RAF's Harrier GR.3. The main visual differences between the RAF's Harrier and the Royal Navy's Sea Harrier were the raised cockpit and longer nose housing the Blue Fox radar system on the FRS1. The Sea Harrier first flew in 1978 and became operational in 1981. A year later, the Sea Harrier saw its combat debut in the Falklands conflict, where it was the only fixed wing fighter aircraft fielded by the British forces. The Sea Harrier also was exported to India, where it remains in service today.

The Hasegawa 1/72 Sea Harrier kit goes way back, with its first release hitting the shelves in 1986. Despite its age, it remains a fairly decent representation of the Sea Harrier FRS.1, molded in gray plastic with recessed panel lines. While the original kit came with a variety of markings, this new Limited Edition focuses on the Sea Harriers of the Falklands War, providing three marking options in the box.
