1:400 Diecast: Vietnam Airlines Boeing 787-9 VN-A870 (Phoenix PH11962)

VN-A870 is a Vietnam Airlines Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, MSN 39289, line number 496. The aircraft completed its first flight on 28 October 2016 and entered service with Vietnam Airlines in November 2016. Vietnam Airlines joined Star Alliance in 2010 and operates the 787-9 on long-haul routes connecting Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to European and Asian destinations. The 787-9 extends the baseline 787-8 fuselage by six metres and carries up to 296 passengers in Vietnam Airlines' three-class configuration.

Livery and Visual Details

The model presents Vietnam Airlines' signature dark blue fuselage with a distinctive golden-yellow cheatline sweeping along the lower fuselage and widening towards the nose. "Vietnam Airlines" is inscribed in white script on the forward upper fuselage, accompanied by a small golden lotus flower logo. "BOEING 787 DREAMLINER" text appears on the mid-aft fuselage in white. The vertical stabilizer is deep blue, carrying the large golden lotus — the national flower of Vietnam — as the central motif. A Vietnamese flag (red with yellow star) is visible near the top of the tail. The wingtips are raked wingtips, characteristic of the 787 family. Engine nacelles are blue with white intake rings; the exhausts carry GEnx chevron nozzles. A small Star Alliance logo appears on the forward fuselage below the cockpit.

Model Craft and Collectibility

Phoenix PH11962 renders VN-A870 at 1:400, capturing the full deep-blue lotus livery. Vietnam Airlines' 787-9 fleet is among the more distinctive Dreamliner liveries in Southeast Asia, and VN-A870 documents a specific early example from the carrier's initial 787-9 intake cohort.
