This model kit requires assembly. Cement, paint and other construction materials not included unless specifically stated in the description.
The MD 500 Defender in service with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is a highly agile, lightweight multi-role military helicopter nicknamed the "Lahatut" (Hebrew for "Slight of Hand" or "Trick"). Acquired by the Israeli Air Force (IAF) after the Yom Kippur War as a cost-effective alternative to heavier attack platforms like the AH-1 Cobra. The Lahatut provided unmatched nimbleness and a tiny silhouette that made it incredibly difficult to detect or target.
