Built in 1976 these colourful tugs were in service in
the Middle East and the United Kingdom. Al Khubar 1 was black, Al Khubar 2
red and Al Khubar 3 blue. The large number of perspective assembly
drawings and full-size plan make Al Khubar a fairly simple project for
average modelling skills. With twin propellers and Kort nozzles the model
is highly manoeuvrable and ideal for RC steering.
