Description

This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.


From the manufacturer:

The Fairchild C-123B Provicer was an American military transport plane developed by the Chase firm in the early post-war years. It was initially planned as a glider, but engines were installed in the design later on. After 1953, series production was taken on by the aircraft manufacturer Fairchild. Equipping the U.S. Air Force, it started appearing in 1955; apart from the Air Force, it was also used by the Coast Guard and the Federal Aviation Administration.

During the Vietnam War, it was used as a transport, utility plane, VIP plane, and also for carrying out special operations. As well as the Air Force, the C-123B was used in Southeast Asia by the CIA in the guise of the dubiously named airline "Air America." In total, 302 machines were made of this variant. Some of them were transferred to the Air Forces of Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Venezuela, South Korea, Taiwan and Saudi Arabia. 

Includes decals for 3 different aircraft.
