The Hobby Boss 1/48 F-80A Shooting Star model reproduces an early operational jet fighter used by the United States Air Force. This kit showcases the streamlined contours that defined first generation jets and gives modellers a chance to build a neat period piece with realistic proportions.
The F-80A was one of the initial jets to see service, providing a great subject for those who like classic aviation subjects. Its clean planform and simple yet elegant form make it enjoyable to assemble and rewarding to paint and display.
Intended for a wide range of skill levels, the kit offers precise parts that represent structure and surface detail accurately. Pay attention to alignment at the wing roots and nose joints to avoid gaps. Use the included decals and painting notes to reproduce squadron markings or add your own styling.
