Century Wings 1:72 A-6E Intruder 'Moon Lighters' EA01 1976, 588202

Sale price£120.00 GBP

This 1:72 diecast model of the Grumman A-6 Intruder pays tribute to one of the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps’ most reliable and enduring all-weather attack aircraft. First flown on April 19, 1960, the A-6 was developed to meet the Navy’s need for a carrier-based strike platform capable of operating in any weather, day or night. Its unique CRT navigation and targeting system allowed for precision low-level flight under challenging conditions, making it a staple of naval aviation for decades.

 

Nicknamed “Double Ugly” and “Drumstick” for its distinct appearance, the A-6 served with distinction in conflicts ranging from Vietnam to the Persian Gulf, Somalia, and Bosnia, before being retired in favour of the F-14 Tomcat in the late 1990s.

 

This model comes prebuilt and includes display accessories and a stand.

 

 

Length - 9.25"

Width - 8.75"

 

 

The model has two drawbacks being the nose refuel probe seems to have been glued back into place (but remains sturdy) and there is an oil based glue resin on the cockpit seats. Otherwise the model is in near mint condition.

 

The box is in excellent condition but does have wear on multiple sides such as scratches.
