Hobby Boss 80246 American F-84E Thunderjet in 1:72 Scale

The F-84E Thunderjet from Republic Aviation is a noteworthy example of early turbojet fighters. First flown in 1946 and with production ending in 1953, roughly 4,457 units were built across six variants. The F-84E version, introduced in 1949, improved the type's operational capability.

Hobby Boss has rendered this jet in 1:72 scale, representing the aircraft that served with the United States Air Force until 1956 and in some Air National Guard units through 1959. The kit gives builders a chance to replicate the Thunderjet's characteristic silhouette in plastic.

A Builder's Project

Model makers will find the kit rewarding thanks to its detailed mouldings and scale proportions. With careful assembly and finishing, the completed model becomes a solid representation for any military aviation collection.
