The innovative Black Label series from Dragon features a stunning new
1/35 scale kit of the THAAD missile launcher, a centerpiece of the THAAD system. THAAD targets short-, medium- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles in their terminal phase. Relying on kinetic energy, the 900kg THAAD interceptor uses a hit-to-kill approach rather than an explosive-filled warhead. The M1120 emanates from the well-known HEMTT truck series built by the Oshkosh Corporation. The 8x8 launcher, powered by a 450hp Detroit Diesel 8V92TA engine, boasts eight missiles.
Never before has this THAAD launcher been available as a plastic kit in 1/35 scale, so this is clearly an ambitious addition to Black Label’s range. Given the topical nature of the THAAD missile defense system, as well as the extreme quality of this new item, this will be an extremely hot kit. The missile canisters and launcher mechanism mounted are finely detailed. An ability to elevate and rotate the launcher allows modelers to pose the vehicle exactly as they wish. Indeed, the outriggers can also be deployed for a launch vignette. Furthermore, the eight tubular missile canisters are made of metal for maximum realism. This is a simply stunning subject in Dragon’s popular Black Label series, and sales of this impressive-looking kit are expected to simply go ballistic!
The Oshkosh M1120 HEMTT is a modern American heavy truck. The first HEMMT vehicles entered service with the US Army in 1982, and they remain with the M1120 version. The length of the M1120 car (without a trailer) is 10.21 meters and a width of 2.44 meters. The truck is powered by a single diesel engine Caterpillar C15 with a power of 515 hp. The top speed of the M1120 is 100 km / h. The HEMTT (Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck) was developed in the early 1980s by Oshkosh Corporation. It is based on a four-axle chassis, thanks to which it has great - for this class of vehicles - off-road properties and considerable transport possibilities. In the 1980s and 1990s, the HEMTT trucks became true US Army "workhorses". In 1999, the M1120 version appeared, which was equipped with a special loading system (LHS) enabling it to transport various types of cargo - including containers. The vehicle has a load capacity of 11 tonnes, but is often limited to 10 tonnes. HEMTT vehicles took part, among others, in operations in Iraq (2003) or in Afghanistan.
