About product

The Tomcat that flew in only two countries

This carrier fighter with a variable-geometry wing stayed almost exclusively American for its whole career. Its only foreign customer was Iran, which took the machines over while still under the empire in the second half of the 1970s. That is precisely why two very different chapters of the same type meet on this sheet.

Six machines, two stories

Four variants belong to Iranian aircraft. The oldest carries the insignia of a squadron of 1978, the others capture the same airframes after the change of regime, including a desert camouflage as well as the later gray and blue finishes of the 1990s and of 2003. The remaining pair shows American machines of a training center from Fallon air base: one in blue-gray, the other in a sand and green finish, of the kind worn by aircraft playing the role of the adversary in training.

Recommended procedure

  • with the desert schemes, first match the shades against the color standard, as the sheet itself holds no paints
  • apply large fuselage lettering in one piece, as a division into parts shows on a smooth side
  • lay a decal onto a gloss base and draw the surplus water off rather than wiping it
  • treat the area around the cockpit and the forward fuselage with a decal softener, as the shape is markedly curved there

In the package there is only the printed sheet. The kit, the paints and the varnish are not part of it. With the Iranian machines it also pays to check the form of the national insignia for the period in question, because they changed during the career of the type.

FAQ

Six. Four Iranian aircraft from various periods and two American machines of a training center, which played the role of the adversary in air combat practice.

They are not. The package holds printed markings only, and the paints and varnish have to be bought separately. For some of the machines, though, the documentation gives shade numbers according to the American Federal Standard.

Iran was the only foreign user of this type and its aircraft flew long after they were taken over, so they offer unusual finishes and national insignia.

No. The motifs are designed for 1:32 and on a smaller model they would be too large.
