Product Details

11" x 17" Modern US Marine Corps Assault Ship Deck section for displaying 1:48 Scale USMC Aircraft. Amphibious assault ships allow the marines to rapidly deploy troops via amphibious landing craft under the protection of close air support aircraft launched from above deck. Much smaller than dedicated aircraft carriers, assault ships carry a mix of gunship and troop-carrying helicopters in addition to V/STOL strike/attack aircraft like the AV-8B Harrier II and proposed F-35B Lightning II.
