Academy 12443 - 1/72 F-104G Starfighter: Slim Jet Modelling Project

Academy presents the F-104G Starfighter in a 1/72 scale kit that highlights the aircraft's narrow fuselage and pointed nose. The parts reflect the Starfighter's sleek geometry, making it appealing to builders who focus on silhouette and finish.

Why the Starfighter Appeals to Modellers

Known for its role in several air forces during the Cold War era, the F-104G stands out with its minimalist wing planform and high-performance reputation. This kit gives modellers a chance to recreate those visual traits at small scale.

Tips for Building and Showcasing

The assembly suits intermediate hobbyists; small fittings reward patience and accurate painting. When complete, the model works well in a display case or as part of an assembled fleet of Cold War aircraft.
