Asian elephants, led by mahouts, were an indispensable support force for the RAF when moving heavy equipment, towing aircraft or transporting supplies across impassable, tropical airfields of India and Burma. Both the British and Japanese used elephants for their strength and ability to work in challenging terrain conditions, where ordinary vehicles would break down or get stuck in the mud.

The set includes: a realistically sculpted marching Asian elephant, a mahout riding on its back, and a standing RAF mechanic. The model does not include glue or paints.
