ACADEMY
Academy 12363 1/48 USN XF5F... $32.95
Experimental twin-engine carrier fighter aircraft developed by Grumman for the U.S. Navy in the late 1930s. Powered by two Wright R-1820 Cyclone counter-rotating radial engines, the Skyrocket’s top speed was 358 mph and could climb 10,000 ft in just over four minutes. During diving tests the Skyrocket reached a speed of 485 mph. One prototype was built and its first flight was on April 1st 1940. At the time it was the Navy’s largest fighter, with a wingspan of 42 ft and length just under 29 ft. The unique Skyrocket served for research purposes until being dismantled after an accident in late 1944. The reissue kit by Academy includes parts for the early truncated-nose & short engine nacelles and the late long-nose & extended engine nacelles, originally released by Minicraft as two separate kits.

Training aircraft used by U.S. Navy. The Beechcraft T-34 Mentor was an American military low-wing metal training aircraft from the Cold War and modern times. The flight of the prototype took place in 1948, and the plane entered service in 1953. About 2,300 machines of this type were created in the course of production. The propulsion, in the T-34C version, was provided by a single Pratt and Whitney Canada PT6A-25 turboprop engine with 550 HP. The length of the aircraft was 8.75 meters with a wingspan of 10.16 meters. The machine did not have a permanent on-board armament. The T-34 Mentor aircraft was initially developed as a grassroots initiative by Beechcraft Aircraft Corporation, which aimed at creating a training and training aircraft that was cheap to produce and operate. It was planned to be an economical alternative to the T-6 Texan. The assumptions of the Beechcraft company partially proved successful and in 1953 the T-34 aircraft began to be used by the US Air Force, and later also by the US Navy. In the course of production, three main military versions of this aircraft were created: T-34A (version dedicated to USAF), T-34B (version dedicated to US Navy) and T-34C (version with turboprop engine). It is worth adding that the machine was also quite successful on foreign markets and was or is still operated in countries such as Argentina, Chile, France, Japan (license production) and Turkey.

Academy 12353 1/48 USN F4U-... $31.95
The revolutionary design of the F4U Corsair was created in 1938 in response to the request of the US Navy to design a high-speed fighter stationed on board aircraft carriers. Chance Vought took on the challenge, with the goal of fitting the most powerful of the available engines (i.e. the Pratt-Whitney Double Wasp engine) into the smallest possible airframe. The key was to place the clunky landing gear in the inverted, crooked wings that became the hallmark of the aircraft. The flight of the prototype took place on May 29, 1940, and the US Navy received its first serial Corsair on July 31, 1942. However, tests carried out by the US Navy on aircraft carriers revealed some flaws in the design, which meant that the first production series of the aircraft went to squadrons of the Marine Corps and operated from land bases. The first unit received by the F-4 was the VMF-124 at Gudalcanal. It quickly turned out that the new machine definitely surpasses all enemy machines and, in several respects, also the F-6 Hellcat. At the same time, however, it was very difficult to pilot and required great attention when landing. Interestingly, only up to 20% of Corsair missions took off from the decks of aircraft carriers, and throughout almost the entire war they remained primarily a machine of the Marine Corps. After the end of World War II, the F-4 Corsair remained in the line and took part in the Korean War (1950-1953). Technical data (version F4U-4): Maximum speed: 731 km / h, speed of climb: 19.7 m / s, maximum ceiling 12649 m, maximum range: 1115 km, armament: fixed - 6 M2 machine guns, caliber 12, 7mm and 4 20mm Browning cannons, sling - up to 1800 kg of bombs. This model kit from Academy brings us an accurate reproduction of the single-seat F4U-4 Corsair, an aircraft that was active from World War II to the Korean War! The cockpit interior and details of the landing gear are achieved with a modest number of parts; decals for four versions from the Korean War are included, including Thomas Jerome Hudner Jr., who was awarded the Medal of Honor at the Battle of Nagatsuko.

The Grumman F8F Bearcat is a late-war American single-engine transport fighter. The prototype flight took place on August 21, 1944, and the F8F entered service in February 1945, reaching the Pacific in May of the same year. However, the aircraft did not take an active part in World War II. The heart of the F8F was the powerful Pratt-Whitney R-2800-34W Double Wasp engine with 2400KM and 2800KM supercharged. The Bearcat was lighter than the Hellcat, was significantly faster, and had a much better rate of climb. The F4 Corsair was also ahead of the competition in many respects. Interestingly, many design solutions in the F8F were taken from captured German Fw-190s. F8Fs were used in combat by France in the Indochina War (1946-1954). They were also exported to South Vietnam and Thailand. Technical data (F8F-2 version): Maximum speed: 720 km/h, rate of climb: 25.3 m/s, maximum ceiling 12190 m, maximum range: 1400 km, armament: fixed - four suspended 20mm M2 cannons - up to 908 kg load.

The Hawker Hunter was one of the most successful and most widespread fighters of the 1950s. It was designed by British constructor Sir Sydney Camm in 1948 as a day fighter, successor to the Gloster Meteor. The first prototype flew in July 1951, while the first machine in the F.1 production series entered service exactly three years later. The Hunter FGA.9 was a version adapted to carry out attacks against ground targets, also equipped with the more powerful Rolls-Royce Avon 207 engine, instead of the Avon 203 from the F.6 model, and thus with a better payload and range. The changes also included redesigning and strengthening the wings. A total of almost 2,000 Hawker Hunter machines of all types were built, of which about 700 were then resold to foreign recipients after decommissioning. Belgium, Sweden, Peru and India.

The McDonnell-Douglas F-4 Phantom is a long-range, twin-engine, two-seater multi-role fighter designed for operations in difficult weather conditions. The flight of the prototype took place on May 27, 1958, and serial production began in 1961. Originally, the F-4 was intended only as a stormtrooper, but from 1955 on, the design work went towards meeting the US Navy's need for a new on-board fighter. The F-4 Phantom turned out to be a very successful machine, produced in several versions, exported to many countries and produced under license. The first versions are models from A to D intended for fighter-bombers. The next version is the F-4E, produced since 1967 as a long-range fighter. Reconnaissance versions were also created: RF-4B, RF-4C and RF-4E. The latest versions are the F-4F and F-4G Wild Weassel - these are electronic warfare planes and designed to fight the enemy radars. The F-4 took part in the Vietnam War, the conflicts in the Middle East (1967, 1973) and the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988). In total, 5,057 F-4 Phantom aircraft were built. Technical data (version F-4E): Maximum speed: 2370 km / h, speed of climb: 210 m / s, maximum ceiling 18300 m, maximum range: 2600 km, armament: fixed - 1 20mm M61A-1 cannon, Suspended - up to 7255 kg of bombs and rockets. Strike Fighter Squadron 103 (abbreviation VFA-103) is an American in-flight air unit created in May 1952. Currently, the most characteristic hallmark of the VFA-103 aircraft is the pirate flag, in English called Jolly Rogers, on the horizontal stabilizers. It was also the source of the squadron's unofficial name. The first aircraft on which the VFA-103 pilots flew were the FG-1D Corsair. In 1957, the unit was rearmed with the F-8 Crusader, as one of the first in the US Navy. At the turn of 1964/1965, the VFA-103 began to be armed with the new F-4 Phantom machines. In 1983, however, it was rearmed with the new Grumman F-14A Tomcat fighters, armed with AIM-54 Phoenix missiles. Currently, the basic aircraft of the unit is the F / A-18F Super Hornet. Strike Fighter Squadron 103 pilots took an active part in the Vietnam War (1964 / 195-1975) and in both Persian Gulf Wars (1990-1991 and 2003). This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.

History was forever made on October 5, 1944 when a Spitfire XIV of No.610 Squadron was the first Allied aircraft to shoot down a turbojet-powered Messerschmitt 262A Swallow! Designed as an experimental Mark V fore-runner of future Griffin-engined Spitfires, it proved so promising, it was named the Mark XIV and rushed into production. Over 1,000 aircraft of this type were manufactured and deployed before the end of World War II. It was the Mark XIV that finally had the range and maneuverability to go against the FW-190 on equal terms. Powered by the two-stage Griffin type 65 engine, the Mark XIV differed from the earlier Spitfires by its larger rudder and elevators, five-bladed ROTOL propeller and four 20mm cannon mounted in its type "C" or "E" wing. Besides its successful battle history, in particular shooting down over 300 V-1 Flying Bombs, many aviation enthusiasts regard the Spitfire Mark XIV as one of the most beautiful fighter airplanes ever designed.

The Curtiss P-40 Warhawk is an American, single-engine, metal-framed, low-wing fighter-attack aircraft with a classic tail. The prototype first flew in 1938, and serial production took place in 1938-1944. The last of the Hawk family, the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk, was, apart from the Republic P-47 and North American P-51 Mustang, the most widely built American fighter. By the time production ended in December 1944, the number of aircraft had exceeded 15,000. The development of the design began in 1937, when the prototype airframe of version 75 was adapted to accommodate the Allison V-1710-11 inline engine with a power of 1,167 HP. The aircraft became the first American design capable of flying at a speed of over 483 km/h. The version for the RAF was called the Tomahawk Mk IIA. The aircraft had self-sealing fuel tanks and two 7.7mm machine guns mounted in the wing. The Tomahawk MkIIB had American radio equipment and were armed with six 7.7mm machine guns. Some American P-40s were modernized in 1941 for reconnaissance duties. They received the designation RP-40. At the same time, work was underway at Curtiss on the conversion of the Hawk 81-A. The changes included the installation of an Allison V-1710-39 engine with 1,167 hp, providing constant power to an altitude of 3,563 meters, adaptation to the installation of four 12.7mm machine guns in the wing and the installation of an under-fuselage unit that could be used to carry one 227 kg bomb or a jettisonable additional fuel tank. The US Army placed an order for these aircraft in September 1940, assigning them the designation P-40D. Over the next three years, Curtiss made every effort to expand the P-40's capabilities, creating numerous new versions of the aircraft. Despite these efforts, the Warhawk's performance was lower than that of contemporary Allied and Axis fighters. Technical data (P-40E version): length: 9.66 m, wingspan: 11.38 m, height: 3.76 m, maximum speed: 580 km/h, rate of climb: 11 m/s, maximum range: 1100 km, practical ceiling: 8800 m, armament: fixed - 6 M2 machine guns, caliber 12.7 mm, underslung - up to 900 kg of payload.

The McDonnell-Douglas (Boeing) AH-64 helicopter was selected as the winner in the competition with Bell's YAH-63 in December 1976. The name Apache stuck to the helicopter in 1981. This highly efficient machine has four-blade rotors driven by two General Electric T700-701 turbine engines with a capacity of 1696HP. The vestigial wings are fitted with conventional trailing edge flaps, and a plate tail improves longitudinal steering. The two-man crew takes seats one after the other in the armored cabin. The pilot's seat is in the rear, and the weapon operator / gunner is in the front. The key to the universal use of the helicopter are the TADS systems on the gunner's stand and the PNVS systems used by the pilot. The TADS is a target-tracking laser marker and rangefinder set and a forward-facing infrared sensor that is duplicated by the normal optics. The PNVS system is a developed FLIR system that allows you to pilot a helicopter just above the ground in order to prevent or delay detection by the enemy's anti-aircraft defense. Apache helicopters took part in the operation in Panama in 1989, during the Desert Storm in 1991, or the last conflict in Iraq (2003). At the end of 1990, the construction of a new version of the helicopter began, equipped with a Martin / Westinghouse Longbow millimeter radar installed above the head to control the weapons. It is used to control the Rockwell AGM-114 Hellfire anti-tank missiles. Technical data: Top speed: 300 km / h; climb speed 12.7 m / s, maximum range (without external tanks): 689 km, armament: 30mm Hughes M230A1 Chain Gun fixed-1 cannon, and outboard armaments - most often Hellfire missiles. The AH-64A Apache is an attack helicopter that has been deployed by the U.S. Army since 1984. This model kit precisely reproduces the M261 rocket pod, the AGM-114 anti-tank missile, the rugged form equipped with a 30mm chain gun, and the front and rear tandem cockpit. Two kinds of decals are included -- the 59th Air Command 1st Battalion, and the 151st Air Regiment, belonging to South Carolina ANG (State Army( dispatched to Iraq. Features Highly detailed cockpit with pilot & co-pilot seats Fully engraved panel lines and embossed rivets M261 rocket pods, AGM-114 ATGMs and 30mm chain gun included
