The crew consists of two people, the pilot and the weapons operator, seated in tandem to optimise visibility during combat.

The first flight of the AH-1 prototype took place on September 7, 1965, and the helicopter entered mass production in the same year. During the Vietnam War, 1,126 machines of the G model were produced, of which 279 were lost in combat. Due to the very high reliability of the structure, small side profile and good performance, the helicopter remains in service to this day in the US Marine Corps. The AH-1 allowed the US Army to fully implement the theoretical assumption of airmobile infantry (\"air cavalry\") through the fire support of landing infantry units. Today, the AH-1 Cobra is primarily used against an armoured column. Since 1965, several versions of this successful helicopter were created, including: AH-1G (basic version), AH-1J (two-engine version), AH-1Q (version armed with TOW missiles). \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_attachment\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_attachment\"\u003eTechnical data: Top speed: 333 km \/ h; maximum range (depending on version): 507- 574 km; armament: fixed 1 20 mm M197 three-barrel cannon, slung rockets, guided missiles, unguided missiles and cannon pods.\u003c\/div\u003e","published_at":"2026-10-12T16:48:08+02:00","created_at":"2026-10-12T16:48:07+02:00","vendor":"Italeri","type":"Scale Model Kits","tags":["Brand_Italeri","Category_Aircraft","Scale_1\/72 Scale","Type_Helicopters"],"price":35995,"price_min":35995,"price_max":35995,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":68305106567419,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"8001283901604","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Italeri - 1\/72 AH-1W Super Cobra (2026)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":35995,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Italeri-1-72-AH-1W-Super-Cobra-2026.jpg?v=1791816490"],"featured_image":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Italeri-1-72-AH-1W-Super-Cobra-2026.jpg?v=1791816490","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":46324527137019,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.399,"height":572,"width":800,"src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Italeri-1-72-AH-1W-Super-Cobra-2026.jpg?v=1791816490"},"aspect_ratio":1.399,"height":572,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Italeri-1-72-AH-1W-Super-Cobra-2026.jpg?v=1791816490","width":800}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch1\u003e1\/72 AH-1W Super Cobra (2026)\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eItaleri 90160\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExcludes all glues, paints and tools necessary to assemble.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeveloped by Bell Helicopter as an evolution of the “Cobra” attack helicopter, the AH-1W “Super Cobra” entered service during the 1980s and was used in several operational theatres, including military operations in the Gulf and in Iraq.
