While sharing numerous components with its predecessors, the Stalwart was tasked with a distinct mission.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEntering service from 1966 onwards, the Stalwart truly lived up to its name, with its remarkable off-road capabilities earning it a reputation for being unstoppable. Equipped with a sophisticated drive and suspension system, the Stalwart provided its crew with a smooth ride over rough terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite being able to reach nearly 40mph on open roads, controlling the Stalwart could be difficult, as each set of wheels constantly attempted to outpace the others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a genuine amphibian, the Stalwart featured watertight seals to safeguard all essential components, allowing it to transport cargo across water bodies lacking bridges or temporary crossings, emerging on the other side if the ground was firm enough to support its weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn aquatic conditions, the Stalwart Mk.2 was equipped with enhanced waterjet propulsion, achieving speeds of up to 16km\/h under optimal conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBAE SYSTEMS is a registered trademark of BAE Systems plc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"heading--3\"\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid grid--2-col grid--1-col@medium\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eItem Length - Without Packaging (cm): \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e18.4\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eItem Width - Without Packaging (cm): \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e9\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eHow many pieces will be found in the box opened by the customer? \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e211\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eItem Scale: \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e1:35 Scale\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eLicense line:\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"grid__item spec__description\"\u003eBAE SYSTEMS is a registered trademark of BAE Systems plc.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"spec grid grid--2-col grid--2-col@small grid--row-gap-10\"\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eContents (what's in the box) sets:\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"grid__item spec__description\"\u003ePlastic model kit, instruction sheet, paint layout sheet and decals.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eFinish: \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePlastic\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eNumber of Scheme options: \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eSkill Level: \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"grid__item spec__title\"\u003eFlying Hours: \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Airfix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43110162890818,"sku":"A1381","price":113.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5642\/files\/AirfixA1381.jpg?v=1774238640","url":"https:\/\/www.pollystoys.co.nz\/products\/airfix-1-35-alvis-fv622-stalwart-mk-2","provider":"Polly's Toys \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
