Arma Hobby has released the first teaser sprue shots for their upcoming new tool Curtiss Hawk 81-A2 model kit in 1/72 scale.
As previously reported, the upcoming release (70094) is the first in Arma’s new family of 1/72 Curtiss Hawk 81, Tomahawk II and P-40B/C kits. It represents the export version of the Hawk 81-A2 operated by the AVG in China during 1941–1942. These aircraft wore a distinctive camouflage scheme based on British specifications and applied using American-made DuPont paints. Three Flying Tigers marking options will be included.
The two new images show the first injection molded sprues for the kit, which are now being evaluated together with Arma’s tooling partner. If the evaluation confirms everything is on track, pre-orders are planned to open this week with shipping expected in the first half of August.
