Italeri 1459 Sepecat JAGUAR GR.1/3 R.A.F. (1:72) represents the single-seat Jaguar used by the Royal Air Force in the ground-attack role. In one box, it offers the choice of the earlier GR.1 or the later GR.3. The finished 1:72 scale model measures 23.3 cm.

Jaguar in RAF service

The SEPECAT Jaguar originated in a joint French-British programme in the 1960s. It remained in RAF service into the mid-2000s and was also used in operations in the Balkans and Iraq. The type was a twin-turbojet aircraft intended primarily for attacks on ground targets.

GR.1 and GR.3 in one kit

The key difference in this release is the choice between two RAF standards. GR.1 represents the earlier service configuration, while GR.3 corresponds to the later upgraded version. For GR.3, the source mentions updated avionics together with terrain-mapping and GPS systems.

What is included

The box contains one plastic kit, a colour instruction sheet and decals for 5 RAF versions. Figures are not included.
