SPACE set – three-dimensional 3D decals for interior detail

SPACE are modern, three-dimensional self-adhesive decals produced with 3D printing. They combine realistic relief (raised structure) with a full, multi-colour print, so that details such as instrument panels, side consoles or other interior elements gain both depth and legible colour at once.

SPACE elements are transferred onto the model like decals: once peeled from the backing they are applied to the appropriate surfaces and pressed down. They require no painting or forming, which makes them a very quick and convenient way to finish a detail attractively.

About the helicopter – AH-6J Little Bird:

The AH-6 Little Bird is a light attack and reconnaissance helicopter derived from the civilian MD 500 (itself developed from the military OH-6 Cayuse). Designed for special-operations use, since the 1980s it has been closely associated with the U.S. Army's 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (160th SOAR, the "Night Stalkers").

The AH-6J is the armed observation and attack variant, carrying weapons on side-mounted plank pylons such as unguided rocket launchers, Minigun pods and cannon. It is powered by an Allison/Rolls-Royce 250-series turboshaft. Thanks to its small size, agility and ability to operate from confined spaces, the Little Bird excels in raids, fire support and the rapid insertion of operators in urban environments.

Original specifications (AH-6 Little Bird):

• Type: light special-operations helicopter (attack/reconnaissance)
• Crew: 2
• Powerplant: Allison/Rolls-Royce 250 turboshaft (approx. 425 hp)
• Main rotor: five-blade
• Maximum speed: approx. 260 km/h
• Armament (variant): 7.62 mm Minigun pods, rocket launchers, cannon
• Operator: U.S. Army (160th SOAR)
