Description

Up for sale is a brand new 1:72 scale USAF United States Air Force McDonnell Douglas RF-4C Phantom II 64-1077 FJ077  (HA1954) by Hobby Master.

This Phantom is an unarmed recon variant designed for information gathering. This variant is quite easy to recognize from other F-4 variants because of the distinctive nose. The larger nose was designed to accommodate radar, sensors and flat windows for cameras. During its years of service the RF-4C used two nose variations. The original design was the angular version with a later design that had a smoother rounded camera bulge. There were 503 RF- 4cs built with 499 being officially accepted by the USAF. Based at RAF Alconbury the 10th TRW began conversion to the RF-4C Phantom in May 1965.

This model air-plane is made from die-cast metal and include extensive detailing. It is similar in quality to Corgi, Gemini Jets, JC Wings, Witty Wings, Century Wings, NG Models and Aviation72.
