The Hughes/McDonnell Douglas MD500 Defender is a light multi-purpose military helicopter derived from the same family as the Vietnam-era OH-6 Cayuse "Loach," developed as an afford able, agile armed scout and light-attack platform exported to and operated by numerous air arms around the world from the 1980s onward. Dragon's 1/35 kit reproduces the MD500 Defender's compact egg-shaped fuselage, rotor and skid landing gear with crisp panel detail, and includes optional stub-wing weapons stations so builders can equip the model with anti-tank missiles, rocket pods or machine gun pods depending on the operator being modelled. A clear canopy, detailed cockpit tub and instrument panel let the finished model be displayed with the doors or canopy open, showing off the interior work Dragon is known for in its helicopter kits. A distinctive, less common subject that stands out in any modern military helicopter collection. Show more
