About product

Cessna T-37 and A-37 Dragonfly, volume 127 of the Warpaint series

A publication, not a kit. Volume 127 of the aviation series from the British publisher Warpaint Books, by Kev Darling, is devoted to the Cessna T-37 trainer and its attack version, the A-37 Dragonfly. The publisher states with the volume that the US Air Force chose the Cessna design at the start of the 1950s as the successor to the Lockheed T-33 trainers. The text is in English.

The real subject

The T-37 was a small twin-engine trainer with side-by-side seats, thanks to which the instructor could watch the student's hands. Its penetrating whistling engine note earned it the nickname Tweet. In the basic training role it lasted exceptionally long with the US Air Force, because it was simple and tough. The armed A-37 Dragonfly then grew out of it: stronger engines, fixed pylons, armor and fuel tanks on the wingtips. The United States used the Dragonfly in Vietnam to support ground units from low level, and it then reached a number of Latin American air forces, where it served long after the American withdrawal. The two versions differ so much that building the trainer and the attack machine means a different model.

What the book contains

  • the development of the trainer and the attack version and their service
  • photographs of American and foreign machines
  • color profiles of camouflage and markings
  • scale drawings as a basis for a build

Who it is for
