In the fall of 1967, it began to be used in Vietnam, where demonstrated its high combat qualities. To defeat ground targets, AH-1G helicopters used both built-in weapons – a six-barreled machine gun or grenade launcher – and suspended: units of unguided missiles, suspended machine guns, and later – a six-barreled 20 mm gun. Its firepower allowed hitting even armored targets. Over time, the AH-1G received a number of improvements, including measures to counter surface-to-air missiles with thermal guidance. For this, cooling of the engine exhaust gases was used, in addition, a special pipe was installed on the helicopters, which diverted the hot gases upwards, into the plane of rotation of the main rotor. After the end of the war, AH-1G Cobra helicopters continued their service in units stationed in Western Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 459 x 110 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarking options:\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAH-1G 68-15531, company D, 229th AHB, Quan Loi, 1971\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAH-1G 67-15578, 175th AHC, \"Bushwhakers\" Platoon, Vinh Long, 1971\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAH-1G 67-15738, 129th AHC, An Son, Summer 1972\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAH-1G 68-15054, Troop F 8th Cav Regiment, Chu Lai, Autumn 1972\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAH-1G 70-16000, 3rd Squadron 8th Cavalry Division, Mainz-Finthen, Autumn 1973\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll parts in ICM model kits are highly detailed to fit the reality of the original.
