As the Vietnam War progressed, so did the need for the Douglas Skyraider. It was able to provide reliable, close-in fire support against dug-in targets on the ground. Tamiya's model features flaps and three sets of dive-brakes on the fuselage can be modeled in the up or down position. This set includes a vast array of weaponry including Mk.82 bomb, M117 bomb, LAU-3A rocket launcher, and SUU-11A/A gun pod. Two sets of decals are included for the A-1J aircraft of the U.S. Air Force.
