Italeri 1/72 Union Cavalry Model Kit

Union cavalry evolved from an afterthought in 1861 to a devastating combat arm by 1863, with leaders like Sheridan and Custer creating mobile forces that could fight mounted or dismounted with equal effectiveness. Armed with Spencer repeating carbines, sabres, and Colt revolvers, Union horsemen dominated the later campaigns. This 1/72 Italeri set includes mounted cavalry in Federal blue with various weapons poses for Civil War wargaming and dioramas.
