History:
Though smaller in number compared to European forces, American cavalry played a strategic role in reconnaissance, flanking, and disrupting British supply lines during the War of Independence. Often formed from local militias or state dragoons, these mounted units wore a mix of uniforms and civilian attire, reflecting the improvised nature of the Continental forces. Hat Industrie’s 1/72 scale American Cavalry set captures the movement and energy of these riders with a selection of detailed horse and rider combinations. Whether used for battlefield skirmishes, scouting parties, or flanking manoeuvres, this set adds essential mobility and character to any AWI miniature collection.
