Usaf F-104C Vietnam War

This 1:72 scale model depicts the legendary Lockheed F-104C Starfighter, the tactical fighter-bomber variant used by the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam War.

Nicknamed the “Missile with a Man in It,” the F-104C was powered by the J79-GE-7 engine, capable of reaching Mach 2, and optimized for low-level strike and air superiority missions.

The Academy kit includes engraved panel lines, a detailed cockpit, accurate landing gear bays, external fuel tanks, and a full weapons loadout with Sidewinder missiles and iron bombs.

High-quality decals reproduce the metallic finish and black anti-glare panels of the 435th Tactical Fighter Squadron aircraft deployed in Southeast Asia (1965).

A striking and historic model representing the supersonic power of the Vietnam-era USAF.
