About the Design

The C-21 "Dragon" is a heavy transport and gunship used by military and paramilitary entities both on Earth and in hostile alien environments.  A four-engine VTOL, the C-21 is designed to operate in virtually any type of arena, from brutal arctic tundra to deep tropical rainforest.  It carries a massive arsenal of missiles, gatling-guns, rockets, incendiary weapons and grenade launchers, and can also deploy large contingents of armored and un-armored personnel.  Although relatively slow and difficult to maneuver, the C-21's sheer firepower make it a formidable lead gunship for any large-scale military assault.

About the Kit

The C-21 "Dragon" Assault Ship kit was released by Fantastic Plastic Models in April 2011.  The complex 105-piece kit was designed in CAD by Scott Lowther and cast by Masterpiece Models.  In 1:144, the finished model is 11 inches, or 27.9 cm, long.
