The M727 was a specialised full-tracked carrier, built on the M113 family chassis, developed to transport and support the MIM-23 Hawk medium-range surface-to-air missile system for US Army air defence artillery battalions. Paired here with the M192 towed launcher that actually fired the Hawk missiles, this set recreates the two vehicles that worked together in a Hawk battery to move, set up and fire on hostile aircraft throughout the Cold War. Dragon's kit is an unusual double-subject release, combining the M727 carrier's boxy hull and stowage racks with the M192 launcher's distinctive three-rail missile mount, all built up with the brand's typical slide-moulded detail. The MIM-23 Hawk missiles themselves are rendered with their characteristic cruciform fins and tapered nose cones for an accurate, display-ready result. The set includes track links for the M727, the launcher's traverse and elevation mechanism, multiple Hawk missile bodies, and decals for US Army air defence unit markings. A genuinely uncommon subject that lets collectors move beyond tanks and APCs into Cold War strategic air defence, ideal for anyone building a themed missile battery display.
