Best deal 👍 F-14A Tomcat 1/48 Hasegawa 🔥

The F-14 was based on experience gained with the F-111. The F-14A first flew in 1970, and production models started reaching squadrons in 1973. Squadrons VF-1 and VF-2 accompanied the last voyage of Enterprise to Vietnam, but never saw combat. In 1981, Tomcats shot down two Libyan Su-22s during an encounter over the Gulf of Sidra. Since then, the F-14 has been updated several times and has taken part in conflicts in the Middle East, over the former Yugoslavia and over the Mediterranean.

Please see the paint guide below for the manufacturer’s suggested colors.
