Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
Hard-to-find limited issue from 2000 features cockpit and pilot figure, opened or closed missile bay doors, full Falcon missile load that can be internal or extended on the launch trapeze and more. Includes a large and colorful decal sheet for both Japan-based Daggers. Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. When designed in 1950 the F-102 was a radical departure from conventional early jet fighter design. The delta wing allowed supersonic performance and good low speed handling. It was the first US Aircraft to be armed with missiles alone, 6 Falcons carried internally and 12 x 2.75 inch HVAR rockets in the weapons bay doors. The F-102 equipped all 25 of the ADC squadrons in the day, served in SE Asia and equipped many ANG units.
