Its main tasks were to strike ground targets, provide direct air support to its troops, and provide forward surveillance and guidance. The winner of the competition in August 1964 was the project of North America, which was designated OV-10A and given the name Bronco in the armed forces. Combat testing of the aircraft in Vietnam began in the summer of 1968. The aircraft were used very intensively, thanks to their ability to be based on unprepared unpaved airfields and the short time required for re-flight. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf necessary, these attack aircraft were able to appear over targets 15 minutes after receiving a request from ground units, and this distinguished them from jet combat aircraft. During combat missions, the OV-10As demonstrated high efficiency and good combat survivability, becoming a kind of benchmark for anti-guerrilla attack aircraft. The OV-10A Bronco’s combat operations continued after the end of the Vietnam War, and these aircraft were successfully used by air forces around the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eICM's first 1:72 scale model of the OV-10A Bronco aircraft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe model is reproduced in compliance with the geometric proportions of the real aircraft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh level of detail of the fuselage, components, and equipment elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe set includes suspensed aircraft weapons - bombs, unguided missles, tanks with incendiary mixture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes decals for four variants of Vietnam War markings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMarkings Available\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOV-10A 155427, Marin Observation Squadron 2 (VMO-2), Marble Mountain Air Facility, Vietnam, 1969\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOV-10A 155495, Light Attack Squadron 4 (VAL-4) \"Black Ponies\", Binh Thuy, 1969\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOV-10A 67-14649, 20th Tactical Air Support Squadron, Da Nang, 1972\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOV-10A 155472, Light Attack Squadron 4 (VAL-4) \"Black Ponies\", Binh Thuy, 1972\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: \u003cstrong\u003e1:72\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Parts: \u003cstrong\u003e261 pieces\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: \u003cstrong\u003e177 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth:\u003cstrong\u003e 170 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes detailed assembly instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly detailed sprues with high accuracy made from quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBox size: \u003cstrong\u003e295 x 225 x 40 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1:72\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Assembly Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubject:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aircraft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNation:\u003c\/strong\u003e American\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1954-1975 - Vietnam War\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e ICM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct code:\u003c\/strong\u003e ICM72185\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupplied unassembled and unpainted.
