About product

The BAe Harrier of the first generation in 1:144 scale (Mark I)

A plastic kit of the legendary vertical take-off Harrier aircraft from the manufacturer Mark I in 1:144 scale. The issue with the subtitle First Generation covers the early forms of the machine, the GR.1A version of the Royal Air Force and the AV-8A and AV-8C versions of the US Marine Corps. The small scale makes it possible to build a whole collection of Harrier versions in a minimum of space.

The real subject

The Harrier was the first operationally deployed combat aircraft with vertical take-off and landing. It was made possible by the Rolls-Royce Pegasus engine with four swiveling nozzles, thanks to which the machine operated from forest clearings, roads and small decks. The Royal Air Force brought the Harrier GR.1 into service in 1969, and the US Marine Corps took similar machines over under the designation AV-8A and later modernized some of them to the AV-8C standard.

Building and painting tips

In 1:144 scale cleanliness of work decides everything: separate the parts with sharp cutters, sand the joints with fine files and fit the small parts with tweezers. It is best painted with an airbrush in thinner coats; masking putty or narrow tapes will make the camouflage easier. A fine dark wash will bring the engraved lines out, and at the end even the model up with a semi-matte varnish.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of aircraft in 1:144 scale, which saves them room in a display case
  • Anyone interested in vertical take-off aircraft and in British and American aviation
  • Modelers who want a quicker build with a fine result

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

FAQ

The First Generation issue covers the GR.1A version of the Royal Air Force and the AV-8A and AV-8C versions of the US Marine Corps. Check the particular combination of parts in the instructions.

The build is not complicated, but the small parts of 1:144 scale call for tweezers and patience. We recommend at least basic experience with plastic models.

Cement for plastics, basic tools (cutters, a file, tweezers) and modeling paints; none of that is included in the package.
