 1/150 'General Aviation' Hanager - Greenmax

Being reissued/re-mastered based on a 1987 edition. A general aviation hanger from Greenmax who produce a range of relatively cheap (compared to Faller) plastic inject scenic/diorama kits. Also, as Japanese N-scale is 1/150 it should fit pretty well with 1/144 (opposed to US/EU N-scale which can be a bit too small at 1/160) - obviously both systems use the sage N-Gauge Track width at 9mm (for the pedants out there.

Product features

A hangar is a building that protects an aircraft from the elements. It differs from general warehouses in that large doors are stored in the door pockets installed on the left and right sides of the front of the building so that the opening width will be about the same as the width of the building when the front door is fully opened. It is a feature. The roots are semi-cylindrical and have no pillars inside.

By cutting the front door at any part of the product, it is possible to reproduce the fully closed-partially open-fully open state. By adding the separately sold "Factory Equipment A and B" to the side and back of the building, peripheral equipment such as office buildings, exhaust ducts, cranes, general-purpose tanks, and pipelines can be reproduced. Ideal as a hangar for diorama, 1/144 scale small aircraft, helicopters, etc.

-Commercialized the phantom structure kit "hangar" published in the catalog vol.9 released 30 years ago-

The Curtiss H-75 was the export version of the American P-36 Hawk (Curtiss Model 75) fighter of the mid-1930s. The biggest foreign customer was France, where the first planes entered service in the spring of 1939. Of the fourth French sub-variant ordered, the H-75A-4 (H-751), only a handful reached the country before it surrendered to Nazi Germany in June 1940 while the rest of 190 a/c were taken over by the RAF as the Mohawk IV.

In March 1940 Norway ordered 36 H-75A-8s, but in the event they did not reach Europe and were used as advanced trainers in Canada. Of these, 30 a/c were bought by the USAAF in 1942 and after a short service they were sold to Peru.

The H-75A-4/8 was a single-seat, all-metal low-wing monoplane with fabric-covered control surfaces. It had a retractable undercarriage with the main landing gear rotated 90° to fold flat into the wing. Powered by a Wright R-1820 Cyclone single-row radial engine, it was fitted with Curtiss Electric propeller. Its armament consisted of two machine guns in the nose and another two guns in each wing. Racks for two to five bombs could also be mounted under each outer section of the wing.

Following the fall of France a number of Curtiss H-75 aircraft were seized by Germans and some of them were used by the Luftwaffe for pilot training. In the summer of 1941 the first batch of ex-French H-75s, including seven H-751s, were sold to Finland, which extensively used them against Soviet forces.

 [MKM144119] 

The Hawker Siddeley Harrier “Jump Jetˮ is a British V/STOL aeroplane developed in the 1960s. The initial version, the Harrier GR.1, was based on the pre-production P.1127 (RAF) fighter, of which a batch of 60 was ordered for the RAF in 1967. A similar model – designated Mk.50, with simplified navigational/attack system, was exported to the United States as the AV-8A, for use by the Marine Corps and a total of 102 aircraft were delivered during the early 1970s. Some 60 aircraft were upgraded as the AV-8Cs by mid 1980s.

The Harrier GR.1/AV-8 was a single-seat fixed-wing all-metal monoplane powered by a R-R Pegasus turbojet (US designation F402), used for ground-attack, close air support, reconnaissance and fighter roles. It was fitted with two air intakes and four vectoring nozzles for directing the thrust generated by the engine. It had a tandem undercarriage and two outrigger landing gear units. External store hard points were installed for carrying a variety of weapons and external fuel tanks: two under each wing and one under the fuselage, while two Aden cannon gun pods could also be fitted beneath the fuselage.

The Harrier was a very innovative aeroplane and the only truly successful V/STOL design of the many that arose during that period of time and it became the versatile warrior of the RAF.

1) Hawker Siddeley Harrier GR Mk.3, XV738, Grey B, No.4 Sq., RAF, during ‘Exercise Match Coat‘, Gütersloh Air Base, Germany, September 1984

The Curtiss H-75 was the export version of the American P-36 Hawk (Curtiss Model 75) fighter of the mid-1930s. The biggest foreign customer was France, taking deliveries of aircraft designated the H-75A-1, 2, 3 and 4, with the first planes entering service in the spring of 1939. They were modified for French Air Force usage and fitted with different equipment and armament. The H-75A-4 was locally renamed the H-751, of which 97 were shipped from the U.S.A.; however, only a handful reached France before it surrendered to Nazi Germany in June 1940 while the rest (190 a/c) were taken over by the RAF as the Mohawk IV.

The H-75s (the A-7 model) were also ordered by the Netherlands, but they did not arrive in time in Europe and 20 of them were diverted to the Dutch East Indies in May 1940.

The H-75A-4/7 was a single-seat, all-metal low-wing monoplane with fabric-covered control surfaces. It had a retractable undercarriage with the main landing gear rotated 90° to fold flat into the wing. Powered by a Wright R-1820 Cyclone single-row radial engine, it was fitted with Curtiss Electric propeller. The H-75’s armament consisted of two machine guns in the nose and another two guns (H-75A-4) or one (H-75A-7) in each wing. Racks for two to five bombs could also be mounted under each outer section of the wing.

The Dutch H-75s saw action against Japan in 1941-42, but the remaining aircraft were withdrawn from operational use early in 1942. The RAF’s Mohawk Mk.IVs were sent to overseas and used in India and Burma while a great number of them was also supplied to the South African Air Force. In 1942, sixteen ex-RAF Mohawk IVs were delivered to Portugal and assigned to air defence duties in the Azores; they went out of service in 1945.
