The F-104 Starfighter, built by Lockheed Martin, became notable for its narrow fuselage and distinctive thin wings. Introduced in the late 1950s, it served as a supersonic interceptor in the USAF and later across NATO units. The F-104A was primarily fielded against bomber threats, while the F-104C took on fighter-bomber duties in the Vietnam theatre. This Italeri 1359S kit allows modellers to reproduce the Starfighter's profile, with clear reference to the thin trapezoidal wings and the General Electric J-79 turbojet arrangement.
