About product

Republic F-84F Thunderstreak 1:48 (Hobby Boss)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the American Republic F-84F Thunderstreak jet fighter-bomber in 1:48 scale from Hobby Boss. The model has a finely engraved surface, a detailed cockpit with glazing and a well detailed landing gear with its bays. The large 1:48 format shows off the swept wings and the sturdy fuselage.

The real subject

The F-84F Thunderstreak was an American single-seat jet fighter-bomber with swept wings, developed from the straight-wing F-84 Thunderjet. Compared with the older versions it received wings swept by about forty degrees, a modified tail surface and a new canopy. The aircraft first flew in 1952 and became a widespread type in Western air forces during the Cold War.

Building and painting tips

Separate the parts with a sharp knife and glue them with liquid cement for plastic. First assemble and paint the cockpit, then close the fuselage; mask the glazing and paint the frames separately. Apply a primer before painting. Assemble the landing gear bays and the pylons carefully. For a natural metal finish, metallic paints are the answer: they are applied over a smooth base and at the end, because they are harder to mask.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of American Cold War jet aircraft
  • Fans of early jet fighter-bombers
  • Modelers who will appreciate the detail of 1:48 scale
  • Those interested in the equipment of the 1950s

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
