Osborn Models 3090 – Piper L4 Grasshopper Decal Kit- N Scale

Piper J-3 Cub L4 Grasshopper  Decal Kit Decals to convert the N scale Piper Cub kit to the military L$ Grasshopper. This is an unfinished kit and will require construction and finishing   History: Dating back to a 1930 design called the Taylor Cub, the Piper J-3 Cub design was vastly popular as a civilian trainer and sport plane for at least three years before the US Army Air Corps selected the aircraft to be evaluated as an artillery spotter/director platform. The first J-3s delivered, powered by a 50-hp Lenape Papoose 3-cylinder radial engine, were designated the O-59. 40 were delivered in 1941. Shortly thereafter, the Army ordered a new version powered by a 65-hp Continental O-170-3 flat-four engine. It was originally designated the O-59A, but due to an Army designation change, it was called the L-4A. 948 were eventually delivered, and the nickname “Grasshopper” was almost immediately applied.   This is for decals ONLY.  Plane not included.
