Bronco has released a 1/35 Scale Horsa of interest to both armour and aircraft fans
Design in 1940, airspeed, "Horsa" is a large transport glider used for British airborne troops.
But also British and American airborne divisions in the main, so it made the continuous development and improvement, it also can transport jeeps and small artillery. But when you want to AS.51 Horsa Mk I loaded jeeps and artillery and other equipment from the glider into the side door with a lot of manpower required to operate, which is very convenient. So AS.58 Horsa MKII model is the use of the forward fuselage hinge splicing activity.
Cockpit section can be raised to allow the equipment delivered directly into the cabin.
Front wheel design and use a new cable connector located in the front pillars. Horsa MKII cargo floor is also reinforced to prevent falling when damaged.
The aircraft loaded with the weight of 7100 kg, and can be towed up to 242 kilometers per hour, the machine usually glide down to 160 kilometers per hour when the streamer will be released.
Horsa production reached 2,400 units, about 400 of which were transferred to the hands of US airborne troops.

Fabulous idea. So glad to see this available in a scale that matches all the vehicles and figures coming out.

Hi Bill I'd be even gladder if all those vehicles were in 1:32. But on a sensible note - hopefully, this will sell well enough to convince Bronco to scale it down to 1:48 too. All the best Rowan

Still hoping for either a 1/35th or 1/32nd CH-53 with detail on this level!

Would all the Eduard add-ons for the MK I fit this one as well?
