Pre-Order

The ICM AH-1G Cobra (Late Production) in 1:32 scale captures the iconic U.S. attack helicopter renowned in the Vietnam War for its "aerial artillery" role. The real AH-1G carried a six-barrel 7.62 mm Minigun and an M129 40 mm grenade launcher, with late-service adaptations such as exhaust gas deflection to mitigate the threat from man-portable anti-aircraft systems. This kit focuses on those late-production features and delivers a faithful, highly detailed representation.

With 241 parts and precisely moulded sprues, this large-scale kit offers crisp detail across the airframe, turreted armament and late-service fittings. The box includes a three-version decal sheet covering notable Vietnam-era subjects, plus detailed assembly instructions. Finished, the model measures 422 mm in length and 106 mm in width, making it a substantial centrepiece for helicopter and Vietnam War model collections. Part number HC-ICM32061.

The AH-1G combat helicopter has conceived as a fire support helicopter. Due to its firepower, the term “aerial artillery” coined during the Vietnam War, was often applied to it. The main armament mounted on a turret in the nose part of the helicopter was a six-barrelled Minigun 7.62 mm machine gun with a clip of 4,000 rounds and an M129 40 mm grenade launcher with 300 rounds of ammunition. Other types of weapons were also used.

In 1972, the Vietnamese began to use the Soviet “Strela” man-portable anti-aircraft system to attack low-flying targets. They were very successful against helicopters, including Cobras. Some helicopters were equipped with a device that diverted hot gases from the working engine upwards to protect them from the homing heads mounted on the Arrows. And as practice showed, this had the necessary effect. To capture helicopters modified in this way, the sensitivity of the Arrow’s homing head was insufficient.

During the war in Southeast Asia, the Cobras demonstrated excellent survivability and proved themselves to be a reliable and powerful ground support aircraft.
