Italeri 1/72 Ka6d Intruder Usn Arcrft Model Kit

The Grumman KA-6D is the aerial refueling tanker variant of the A-6 Intruder, providing in-flight refueling capability to carrier air wing aircraft from the flight deck. The KA-6D replaced the attack avionics with fuel tanks and a hose-dreel refueling pod, becoming an essential force multiplier for carrier operations. It was the only dedicated tanker small enough for carrier operations until the S-3 Viking assumed the role. This 1/72 scale Italeri kit captures this often-overlooked but vital support aircraft.
