Italeri 2652 1/48 T-6 G TEXAN

This is a plastic model kit, which comes unassembled and unpainted. So glue, model paints and other basic modelling tools are additionally required.

The T-6 was developed with the aim to obtain a trainer that was economical but had all the characteristics of the fighter planes in service at the time. It rapidly became the trainer most widely used by the Allied forces. In all, about 15,500 T-6 Texans were produced, and their use extended beyond the end of World War II. In the post-war period, in fact, Texans continued to fly with the colours of many nations, and they were also adapted to perform attack and surveillance functions, a much less pacific role than the one for which they were designed.
