COBI-5836 - Bell-Boeing V-22 Osprey, model, 1090 parts, from 9 years old

The Bell-Boeing V-22 Osprey is a fascinating and futuristic combination of helicopter and aircraft. The tiltrotor/rotator is the first short take-off and landing multi-role aircraft. It owes its extraordinary characteristics to its rotating propulsion system. Engine nacelles with rotors 12 metres in diameter can rotate during flight. Thanks to this solution, the aircraft can take off and land like a helicopter and switch to horizontal flight after changing the position of the engines. The rotation of the drive nacelles by 45 degrees enables both short take-offs and landings, similar to STOL aircraft. The Osprey was jointly developed by Bell Helicopter Textron, which manufactures the wings, engine nacelles with Rolls Royce engines, rotors, propulsion system, tail control surfaces and loading ramp, and the Boeing Company, which manufactures the fuselage, cockpit, avionics and controls. The Ospreye manufacturer is called Bell-Boeing. Because of its exceptional characteristics, the V-22 Osprey found its way into the equipment of the United States Marine Corps, the United States Navy and other services with the exception of the US Army. It is used in missions all over the world. It has marked its presence in the Middle East and Afghanistan. The first foreign user of the V-22 so far is Japan.

The Bell-Boeing V-22 Osprey model was released under licence from the American combat helicopter manufacturer, Bell Helicopter Textron. Designed in 1/48 scale to match the rest of the Armed Forces collection, the model consists of 1,090 elements and includes two pilot figures. A new female figure pattern is included! The length of the model is 390 mm, the width 500 mm! Completely new elements were developed for the set, which make the model even better! The block model has been covered with durable prints that do not wear out even with intensive use. The most important functionalities are variably positionable drive nacelles, rotatable rotor blades, opening cabin doors with stairs, access to the cockpit and the possibility to place figures there, as well as an opening rear cargo hatch. A sign with the name of the model is included in the set. This amazing tiltrotor/rotator is the perfect set for collectors, fans of military, aviation and history.
