About product

A-7K Corsair II 1:48 (Hobby Boss)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the American two-seat training attack aircraft A-7K Corsair II in 1:48 scale from Hobby Boss. It is a detailed model with engraved surface detail and a generous number of parts. The box holds plastic and clear parts, a photo-etched fret and decals, so that you can build the less common two-seat version of this machine.

The real subject

The A-7 Corsair II was an American carrier-borne subsonic light attack aircraft that replaced older machines for attacks on ground targets. The A-7K version was a two-seat training variant with a tandem cockpit arrangement, an extended fuselage spine and full combat capability, used by National Guard units. Only a small number were built, so it is a fairly rare type.

Building and painting tips

Use liquid cement for plastic and bond the photo-etched parts with super glue. Finish both tandem cockpits and the landing gear bays before you close the fuselage. Apply a primer before painting and lay the colors on with an airbrush; we recommend masking the cockpit glazing. On gray and camouflage schemes it comes into its own after the panel lines are lightly brought out.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of American Cold War attack aircraft in 1:48 scale
  • Fans of the Corsair II and of two-seat training versions
  • Modelers looking for a less common type for their collection
  • Builders with experience of larger aircraft models

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

FAQ

The A-7K is the two-seat training version of the Corsair II, with a tandem arrangement of two cockpits one behind the other and an extended fuselage spine.

Yes, only a small number of two-seat A-7Ks were built for National Guard units, so it is a fairly rare and less common type.

Because of the number of parts, the two cockpits and the photo-etch we recommend it rather to more experienced modelers.
