AT-6 Texan "Little Warrior"

The AT-6 Texan/Harvard was used mainly for training during World War II. However, North American already anticipated during its design that some operators would use the Texan as a combat aircraft. After World War II, it became clear that the Texan was excellent for counter-guerrilla warfare and also in the FAC (Forward Air Control) role. Squadrons of Texans, nicknamed Mosquito, were used by the USAF in the Korean War. European countries such as France, Spain, Britain and Portugal used armed Texans in colonial or anti-communist conflicts in Africa. Texans fought against the communists in Greece. They were used in the first Israeli-Arab wars, on both sides. Texans were also used in combat in South America in many conflicts, uprisings and revolutions.
The kit offers Academy AT-6 mouldings, complete with our new tooled, injection-moulded canopies for various versions.
