1/72 Republic of Korea Marine Corps Amphibious Vehicle AAVP-7A1

Description

This is a plastic military vehicle model.

The AAV7A1 is an amphibious assault vehicle operated by the U.S. Marine Corps. The LVTP-7 was developed as a successor to the LVTP-5 in the late 1960s, formalized in 1970, and unit operation began in 1972. Eventually it was refurbished with an aim to improving its performance; its engine was replaced with a Cummins 4-stroke V8 liquid-cooled turbocharged diesel engine, and the capacity was improved by increasing the size of the cupola. It has been adopted by many countries other than the United States, and is also used by the South Korean Army.

This is an assembled and completed model reproducing the AAV7A1 operated by the Korean Marine Corps. This version is equipped with EAAK, an extended applique armor. The shape of the body, turret and each hatch is carefully expressed in detail; the hull is lightly soiled for a sense of reality and weight. The EAAK armor is accurately reproduced, and it’s painted with the camouflage commonly seen in Korean military vehicles. A display case is included to keep your model free of dust and fingerprints.
