Nakhon Phanom Air Base

Recreate a key Southeast Asia air base with the ICM Nakhon Phanom Air Base 1:48 scale plastic model kit (HC-ICMDS4804). Inspired by 1966 operations in northeastern Thailand, this detailed set centres on the 609th Special Operations Squadron and includes subjects associated with night missions against well-defended targets.

The kit brings together the B-26K Counter Invader (designated A-26A in-theatre) and the light O-2 Skymaster, accompanied by pilot and ground technical personnel figures. An extensive selection of aviation armament enables varied combat suspension configurations, while two sets of airfield plates help establish an authentic flight-line setting. Decals are provided for several aircraft variants, supporting historically themed finishes.
