The Grumman HU-16A Albatross was a multirole amphibious aircraft that entered service in the early 1950s. Its ability to operate from both land-based airfields and the water made it an indispensable machine for search and rescue (SAR), maritime patrol and transport missions. The HU-16A has served primarily with the U.S. Air Force and Navy, but has also found its place with foreign users - in Indonesia, Spain and Taiwan, for example. The aircraft was valued for its rugged construction and reliability, which allowed it to operate in harsh conditions and in a variety of climates.
The 1/144 scale Owl-M kit faithfully captures the shapes and details of this iconic amphibian. Included are decals for four versions - American (USA), Indonesian (IDN), Spanish (ESP) and Taiwanese (TWN). The model is an attractive addition to a collection of military aircraft of the post-war period.
The package does not include paint or glue needed for assembly.
