1/72 SP-2H Neptune New Patrol Scheme

Hasegawa - 1/72 SP-2H Neptune 'New Patrol Scheme'

Prop planes are comparatively rare in the armed forces, so it takes an exceptionally good one-like the Neptune-to stay in service for forty years. These aircraft were initially developed just after the end of the Second World War for anti-submarine warfare duties as well as long range patrol. They could fly for two thousand miles, carry eight thousand pounds of bombs, and wield all the detection equipment necessary for sending subs to the bottom. Various versions were used all the way from '47 to '86.

Hasegawa has become a leader in scale plastic kits by producing highly detailed models that impress the most demanding hobbyists. Because of the accuracy found in such areas as cockpits, interiors, engines, weapon bays and aircraft wheel bays, many Hasegawa models are built by professionals for museum displays. Ultimately, Hasegawa understands that the reward in model building goes beyond successful assembly. For the enthusiast, each model represents an opportunity to explore history, learn more about the subject and create a scale miniature to enjoy for a lifetime.
