A 1:144 scale model of the legendary Grumman F-14A Tomcat carrier-based fighter (item: 03782) from Revell. This kit recreates one of the most famous aircraft of naval aviation (USA), which has become a symbol of air supremacy thanks to its power and recognizable silhouette. The model consists of 49 parts and is 13.4 cm long, featuring a functional wing with variable sweep, a detailed two-seat cockpit, a machined landing gear and a characteristic arsenal of weapons, including AIM-54 Phoenix and AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles. The set includes high-quality decals to recreate the famous VF-84 "Jolly Rogers" squadron with its characteristic skull and crossbones on the keels, allowing you to assemble an authentic miniature of the "Tomcat" in one of its most iconic images.
Glue, paint and brush are not included in the set.
The F-14A Tomcat made history during Operation Frequent Wind in April 1975. As part of VF-1 "Wolfpack" based on the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise, it assisted in the evacuation of Saigon. The aircraft shown here made a significant contribution to the success of this largest military rescue operation.
