Italeri - Bell OH-58D Kiowa

The longevity of this helicopter has proved its worth since 1969, and during this time it has been in continuous service with the US Army. Derived from the Bell 206 Jet Ranger model, the Kiowa performs reconnaissance, observation and advanced tactical support duties. The OH-58D series was the result of several developments such as the adoption of a more powerful engine, four blade rotor head and the use of MMS above it. The Kiowa Warrior was used by the US Army during Operation Iraqi Freedom in Iraq and Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan.

The kit contains fifty nine parts moulded in a pale brown plastic and eight clear parts. There are decals for three versions, US Army Aviation Iraq 2005, Bosnia 1998 and Fort Rucker 2010, and ‘common’ decals for all three types. I opted for the Unknown Unit Iraq 2005.
