Description
Hobby Master HA2914 depicts the Douglas A-1H Skyraider of the USAF 22nd SOS, 56th SOW, marked as TS 53-137628 in South Vietnam. The standout detail is the unit and mission context noted in the reference, with 22nd SOS Skyraiders flying interdiction over the Ho Chi Minh Trail under the call sign Zorro, alongside the distinctive shark mouth applied as a light-hearted nod toward F-4 crews.
A strong choice for a Vietnam-era display, ideal if you like tough, story-led special operations subjects and classic attack aircraft in 1:72.
