The AV-8B Harrier II is a US-British reconnaissance and close support aircraft produced since 1983. The aircraft has a unique vertical takeoff and vertical landing capability. This brings the advantage that makes this aircraft a machine with great possibilities, which can be used in different conditions. Harrier II is a US-developed modernized version of the Hawker Siddeley Harrier aircraft.
Currently in service are the American AV-8B Harrier II and AV-8B + Harrier II Plus, as well as the UK licensed versions of the Harrier GR.5, Harrier GR.7 and GR.9.
The AV-8B Harrier II model was developed entirely from COBI building blocks. The use of 424 elements made it possible to faithfully recreate the characteristic shape of the aircraft in a 1:48 scale model. The model is covered with high-quality prints that will not wear out even with intensive use. The aircraft is equipped with an opening cabin, moveable rudders and ailerons. The model looks even better thanks to an elegant display stand with nameplate. This licensed set is sure to make a great gift idea for anyone regardless of the age of the fan, aviation and military. It looks great in an elegant study as well as in a teenager's room.
