1/144 F-14A TOMCAT
Trumpeter 1/144 F-14A Tomcat is a plastic kit of the American swing-wing carrier fighter. The kit contains over 60 parts. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The Grumman F-14 Tomcat was the US Navy's carrier fighter, designed for long-range defence of carrier battle groups. Its variable-sweep wing gave it good handling for deck landings as well as at high speed, while the AWG-9 radar and AIM-54 Phoenix missiles provided exceptional reach. The F-14A entered service in 1974 and flew into the early 21st century.
According to the manufacturer, the Trumpeter kit in 1/144 scale consists of over 60 parts, including one clear part for the canopy and windscreen. The fuselage and wings feature finely engraved panel lines. The finished model is about 13 cm long and suits a small-scale collection with room for an entire carrier air wing.
The box art depicts an F-14A of VF-84 "Jolly Rogers" with the famous skull on the fins; in this small scale such details call for precise decal work. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
