Known affectionately by its crew as “Lusty”, the Invincible-class light aircraft carrier was commissioned on 20 June 1982 while steaming on its way to the Falkland Islands in the wake of the Argentine invasion. HMS Illustrious has served in a number of operations around the world, including Bosnia, Sierra Leone, and it participated in the evacuation of nationals caught up in the 2006 Lebanon crisis. Dragon has re-launched a 1/700 scale version of HMS Illustrious, this time as a Premium Edition kit. This means it has undergone a serious “refit” and “upgrade” such as the unique bow ski-jump that allows Harriers to takeoff with larger payloads. And what use would an aircraft carrier be without aircraft? Therefore, the kit includes a complement of newly tooled Harrier GR.9 aircraft and Merlin EH101 MH Mk.1 helicopters. As per usual for Premium Edition kits, the kit offers both a waterline hull and a full hull, which gives modelers the choice of which version they prefer assembling. The radar and Goalkeeper CIWS are brand new items, and to provide greater accuracy, a number of the radar components are made from photo-etched metal. This model kit of “Lusty” is an exciting new addition to the illustrious Premium Edition range, and it does indeed make a suitable flagship for modelers’ Royal Navy collections! <LI>SKU: DML7046 <LI>Ordering History: 6-D6 <LI>Date First Stocked: 8/27/2007 Other products in the category <A HREF="http://store.spruebrothers.com/Category17" TITLE="Naval">Naval</A> / <A HREF="http://store.spruebrothers.com/Category43" TITLE="Kits">Kits</A> / <A HREF="http://store.spruebrothers.com/Category172" TITLE="1/400 Scale or Smaller">1/400 Scale or Smaller</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product16723 TITLE="1:471 Revell Germany Classics USS Hope Hospital Ship #00007">1:471 Revell Germany Classics USS Hope Hospital Ship #00007</A> -- 1:471 Revell Germany Classics USS Hope Hospital Ship #00007 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product20527 TITLE="1:481 Revell Monogram USS Helena Heavy Cruiser #850370">1:481 Revell Monogram USS Helena Heavy Cruiser #850370</A> -- 1:481 Revell Monogram USS Helena Heavy Cruiser #850370 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product8186 TITLE="1:700 Bronco Models Kang Ding Class Frigate #N7001">1:700 Bronco Models Kang Ding Class Frigate #N7001</A> -- 1:700 Bronco Models Kang Ding Class Frigate #N7001 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product174 TITLE="1:700 Dragon DDG USS Arleigh Burke #7029">1:700 Dragon DDG USS Arleigh Burke #7029</A> -- 1:700 Dragon DDG USS Arleigh Burke #7029 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product175 TITLE="1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck #7043">1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck #7043</A> -- 1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck #7043 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product176 TITLE="1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck ~ Premium Edition #7060">1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck ~ Premium Edition #7060</A> -- 1:700 Dragon German Battleship Bismarck ~ Premium Edition #7060 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product17975 TITLE="1:700 Dragon German Battleship Tirpitz ~ Premium Edition #7081">1:700 Dragon German Battleship Tirpitz ~ Premium Edition #7081</A> -- 1:700 Dragon German Battleship Tirpitz ~ Premium Edition #7081 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product177 TITLE="1:700 Dragon HMS Ark Royal Gulf War 1991 #7030">1:700 Dragon HMS Ark Royal Gulf War 1991 #7030</A> -- 1:700 Dragon HMS Ark Royal Gulf War 1991 #7030 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product178 TITLE="1:700 Dragon HMS Illustrious #7033">1:700 Dragon HMS Illustrious #7033</A> -- 1:700 Dragon HMS Illustrious #7033 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product179 TITLE="1:700 Dragon HMS Invincible Falklands War #7028">1:700 Dragon HMS Invincible Falklands War #7028</A> -- 1:700 Dragon HMS Invincible Falklands War #7028 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product12962 TITLE="1:700 Dragon HMS Invincible, 25th Falklands War Anniversary ~ Premium Edition #7072">1:700 Dragon HMS Invincible, 25th Falklands War Anniversary ~ Premium Edition #7072</A> -- PRE-ORDER 1:700 Dragon HMS Invincible, 25th Falklands War Anniversary ~ Premium Edition #7072 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product585 TITLE="1:700 Dragon HMS Liverpool Type 42 Destroyer Batch 2 ~ Premium Edition #7069">1:700 Dragon HMS Liverpool Type 42 Destroyer Batch 2 ~ Premium Edition #7069</A> -- 1:700 Dragon HMS Liverpool Type 42 Destroyer Batch 2 ~ Premium Edition #7069 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product12762 TITLE="1:700 Dragon HMS Sheffield 25th Anniversary of Falklands War ~ Premium Edition #7071">1:700 Dragon HMS Sheffield 25th Anniversary of Falklands War ~ Premium Edition #7071</A> -- 1:700 Dragon HMS Sheffield 25th Anniversary of Falklands War ~ Premium Edition #7071 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product183 TITLE="1:700 Dragon HMS York (D98) Royal Navy Type 42 Destroyer Batch 3 ~ Premium Edition Series #7055">1:700 Dragon HMS York (D98) Royal Navy Type 42 Destroyer Batch 3 ~ Premium Edition Series #7055</A> -- 1:700 Dragon HMS York (D98) Royal Navy Type 42 Destroyer Batch 3 ~ Premium Edition Series #7055 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product184 TITLE="1:700 Dragon Russian Cruiser Admiral Ushakov (ex Kirov) #7037">1:700 Dragon Russian Cruiser Admiral Ushakov (ex Kirov) #7037</A> -- 1:700 Dragon Russian Cruiser Admiral Ushakov (ex Kirov) #7037 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product187 TITLE="1:700 Dragon Russian Sovremenny Class Destroyer #7048">1:700 Dragon Russian Sovremenny Class Destroyer #7048</A> -- 1:700 Dragon Russian Sovremenny Class Destroyer #7048 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product188 TITLE="1:700 Dragon Tirpitz German Battleship #7047">1:700 Dragon Tirpitz German Battleship #7047</A> -- 1:700 Dragon Tirpitz German Battleship #7047 <LI><A HREF=http://store.spruebrothers.com/Product586 TITLE="1:700 Dragon U.S.S.
