Is available separately if you wish to display this model “in-flight”. Designed by General Dynamics as a lightweight, daytime USAF air-combat fighter, the F-16 was first flown on January 20th, 1974. This single-engine, supersonic aircraft has, over the years, evolved into a multirole aircraft. It has a frameless bubble canopy-giving its pilot superior visibility-and it uses advanced aerodynamics. The F-16 was one of the first designs to use a relaxed static stability/fly-by-wire system, which helps it pull 9-g maneuvers and achieve speeds of more than Mach 2. Called “Viper” by its pilots, the F-16 is considered one of the most successful aircraft designs of the Cold War, with 4,400+ aircraft built since 1976. JC’s 1:72 scale F-16 is constructed of solid diecast metal. Very few plastic parts are used, yet the finer points – detailed landing gear, engine exhaust, cockpit interior and panel lines and rivet details – are reminiscent of those usually only found on plastic models. Even subtle details have been included, such as radar warning antenna “beer cans, ” static discharge wicks and angle of attack vanes. This model, available as either a single-seat C variant or a two-seat D variant, is highly configurable, with movable stabilators, positionable rudder, a hinged canopy with extending and retracting actuator and a variety of different weapons configurations.

JC Wings 1:72 Military Series JCW-72-F104-004 Lockheed F-104C Starfighter Diecast Model USAF 479th TFW, #56-0891 Really George, George Laven Jr. George AFB, CA, 1963. Limited Edition 500 Pieces Worldwide. Tactical Air Command accepted its first F-104C at the annual fighter weapons meet at Nellis AFB, Nevada, on 15 October 1958. This aircraft was named “Really George” because its home base would be the 479th TFW at George AFB, California. Secondly it would be the plane flown by Wing Commander Col. Who was a WWII P-38 ace with 5 victories. The paint schemes on some of the planes from this era were quite elaborate, with “Really George” being one of them. Designed to meet a need for an aircraft that could successfully compete against the MiG-15 in Korea, the F-104 Starfighter was first flown on February 20, 1958. American pilots believed that the F-86 Sabre was too large and complex to outmaneuver the lighter MiG, and they wanted a smaller, simpler, high-performance aircraft to replace it. The resulting design was a light, aerodynamic airframe wrapped around a powerful J79 turbojet engine. The F-104C was used by the USAF from 1958 until 1967, but most of the 2,578 production Starfighters were built and flown by members of NATO, including the Italian Air Force, which didn’t retire it until 2004. JC’s 1:72 scale F-104 Starfighter is constructed with an intelligent mix of diecast metal and plastic, with plastic used only in areas requiring the finest detail, such as the engine intakes and exhaust. Other details, such as small antennas and air data sensors, are constructed of metal – something not generally seen in similar models of this scale. The subtle panel lines that are typical of all Witty models can be seen on the fuselage, solid metal wings and empennage, and the clear plastic canopy reveals cockpit details, detailed pilot figure and an ejection seat.
