ESCI – 9036 – MDD AV-8A “Matador”

Description:

Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a British Hawker Siddeley Harrier in an export variant of the U.S. Marine Corps version AV-8A, designated as “Matador” by the Spanish Navy.

The last release in the ESCI Harriers line, the MDD AV-8A “Matador” was issued in 1984 and is just a re-decal of the ESCI – 9051 – AV-8A U.S. “Marines” kit. The new decal sheet included two markings, one for the U.S. Marine Corps and one for the Spanish Navy. The kit was issued again in 1988 with a very similar box cover but using the ESCI/Ertl logo.
