Eurocopter AS532 Cougar Helicopter in 1/32 Scale

By Meindert de Vreeze

Using the original Matchbox Puma helicopter kit (later issued through Revell also) I started this large conversion project. Being a Dutch modeller and as the Dutch Airforce operates the Cougar helicopter on behalf of the AirMobile Brigade, I really wanted this model in the collection.

The Cougar is a very different helicopter than the Puma but also thereare common features. Briely, the conversion required:

Also, it was decided to make a Cougar used for naval testing. It took a lot of work, more details can be found here on this website:

Having a 1/32 Cougar in the collection was worth all the effort.

Enjoy large scale modelling!
