Finishing depends on degree of detail desired. Definitely not for a beginner. **Q: Can you briefly give out dimensions of the plane like length and wingspan? much appreciated. thank you.** A: wingspan 12.5" length 9.5" **Q: does it have crew members(pilot).If not can anyone give me a source for interior crew members.** A: A bit late, but you can get pilots (and ground crews) from the "Hasegawa Pilot Deck Crew" sets here on amazon and other places. Search for the words in the quotes and you will see 2 options: Crew B is USAF (mostly) and Crew A is USN, despite both being labeled as USN. Since the A-1H is USN, you most likely want Crew Set A. The gear on the pilots might not be 100% correct for the A1 era, but inside a closed up cockpit who would really notice? **Q: Can the wings fold on this model?** A: Sorry but the wings on this kit are molded as solid wings and not designed to be folded. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kit skyraider *by M***S on 1 November 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bausatz *by K***. on 2 December 2025* Tolles Modell ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfecta *by R***O on 17 November 2025* Montaje perfecto, para mí es la mejor marca de modelismo de aviación ## Frequently Bought Together - Tamiya Models Douglas A-1H Skyraider Model Kit, ages 12 Up - Tamiya 87038 Extra Thin Cement Glue Fine Tip 40ml - Tamiya 61061 1/48 Vought F4U-1D Corsair Plastic Model Airplane Kit --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/277142842-tamiya-models-douglas-a-1h-skyraider-model-kit](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/277142842-tamiya-models-douglas-a-1h-skyraider-model-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
