COBI WACO CG-4 Military Glider

The WACO CG-4 played a crucial role in Allied operations, transporting troops, supplies, and equipment to battlefields. Capable of carrying up to 13 soldiers or an equivalent load of combat gear, such as a Willys MB car, the glider was constructed with a wooden and metal frame covered in canvas. Its notable wingspan of approximately 83 feet (25 meters) allowed it to be towed by cargo planes like the C-47 Dakota. The WACO CG-4 was instrumental in key operations, including Operation Market Garden and the Normandy invasion, facilitating swift and effective troop movements into enemy territory. Its contributions were vital to the success of the Allied forces and influenced post-war landing technology developments.

This 1:48 scale block model features a newly designed glider nose block, mirroring the real glider's appearance! The interior can accommodate the included American pilot figure. With high-quality prints and a matching size to the Douglas C-47 Skytrain Dakota aircraft set, these models create an extraordinary aerial duo to recreate D-Day. Will your Dakota tow the WACO CG-4?
