About product

1:72 M6 Bradley Linebacker Air-Defense Vehicle — a Dragon kit

An injection-molded plastic kit in 1:72 scale from Dragon. The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The number of parts, the contents of the package and the number of marking options are stated on the box.

The real subject

The M6 Linebacker is the air defense variant of the American M2 Bradley tracked infantry fighting vehicle. It is based on the hull and turret of the Bradley, but instead of the launcher for anti-tank guided missiles it carries a launch container for infrared-guided anti-aircraft missiles on the side of the turret. The rest of the vehicle stays essentially the same as the Bradley: a tracked chassis with torsion bar suspension, an aluminum hull with add-on protection and the same powerplant. The vehicle appeared in the armament of the US Army in the 1990s and was later largely converted back to the standard Bradley version.

Building and painting tips

In 1:72 scale clean work on small parts is what decides: use a thin cement for plastic applied with a fine brush and cut the parts off rather than breaking them out. Assemble and paint the running gear before you close the hull up and fit the tracks — after that you can no longer reach it. After the base, apply a primer over the whole model, so that the paint holds on smooth areas too. Make the panel shadows with a dark wash that runs into the engraved lines, and finally dust the surface with pigments, because a tracked vehicle without dust looks unconvincing. Apply the decals onto a gloss clear coat and go over them with a matte one.

Who the model is for

  • For collectors of modern American vehicles in 1:72 scale.
  • For modelers who want an unusual version of the Bradley in their display case.
  • For builders of small dioramas, where the vehicle fits beside figures and terrain.
  • For modelers with experience of small parts in a small scale.

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. This is a classic injection-molded kit that has to be assembled, painted and fitted with decals.

It carries a launch container for anti-aircraft guided missiles instead of the anti-tank launcher on the turret. The basis of the vehicle stays the same.

The number of parts is stated on the box.

1:72 scale means a lot of small parts. For a very first model it is not the ideal choice, but for a modeler with a little practice it is.
