This 440 x 400mm display base is designed to replicate a forward operating base surface inspired by San Carlos during the Falklands conflict.

The distinctive trackway surface creates a visually striking operational setting that works especially well with Harriers and other military aviation subjects from the era.

Perfect for collectors, hobbyists and scale modellers, this display base offers a straightforward way to elevate your build without the complexity of creating a full custom diorama. The detailed surface textures help create a more immersive scene while keeping the focus firmly on the aircraft itself.
