History
During the Cold War, the United States developed a vast range of air-delivered weapons to support both strategic and tactical operations. Unguided bombs and rocket pods formed the backbone of close air support and ground attack missions, especially during conflicts such as Korea and Vietnam.
These weapons were carried by everything from early jet fighters to dedicated attack aircraft, providing flexible firepower against ground targets. Rocket launchers were particularly valued for their ability to saturate enemy positions, while conventional bombs remained a reliable and widely used strike option.
This Hasegawa weapon set reflects that period of rapid military aviation development, giving modellers the opportunity to accurately represent heavily armed aircraft from one of the most defining eras of modern air warfare.
