The world’s largest military transport aircraft is finally landing on hobby benches. 3D-WILD has announced the release of the first Lockheed C-5 Galaxy kit on the market, a colossal 1/200 scale model that stretches 37.7 cm in length with a wingspan of 34.0 cm.

This ambitious kit captures the sheer presence of the C-5M Galaxy, complete with an intricately recreated cargo bay. Builders can showcase the aircraft mid-operation, loading or unloading heavy military hardware on the airfield.

Features

• Fully detailed cargo bay with walls, floor, and ceiling
• Functioning nose and tail ramps
• Flaps in the down position
• Landing gear in the “kneel” position
• Open passenger door with deployed ladder
• Lighting-ready with built-in channels for up to 12 LEDs to illuminate the cargo bay
• Diorama accessories including 2 M1A2 main battle tanks, 2 M113 APCs, 2 SLT 56 heavy tank-transporter trucks, and 10 tank/ground crew figures
