1/48 Hughes 500MD TOW/OH-6D

Reissue of the Fujimi 1/48-scale Hughes 500MD kit with parts and decals to build five versions: a US Army 500MD TOW Defender with mast sight and missile pods, a green JGSDF OH-6D, a camoflaged JGSDF OH-6D, a SWAT 500D, and a California Highway Patrol 500D. A few unused parts are also included, such as a nose-mounted radar pod and civilian seats. Check the painting guides when building; the instructions show the TOW Defender exhaust arrangement only, but the other types should use part 21 in place of part 19 for the exhaust, and not use parts 33. This could also make a fun "what-if" -- TOW-equipped CHP aircraft, anyone? See box art for marking details.
