1:12 F-104G Cockpit

Art. No.: 510002991 Art. Description: 1:12 F-104G Cockpit This model kit is a replica of an F-104G cockpit. The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter is one of the most renowned fighter aircraft in aviation history and also holds the record for the longest operational service. Its story began in the late 1950s and continued with several air forces until the mid-2000s. Its unique airframe, featuring a sleek fuselage and very small wings, made this aircraft ideal for use as an interceptor. Thanks to the thrust of its afterburning turbojet engine, the General Electric J79-GE-11A, it could exceed a top-notch climb rate of Mach 2.2. With this scale model kit, model builders can recreate the famous "Starfighter" cockpit with the typical interior layout of fighter jets from the 1950s and 60s, which was the "home" for many former NATO pilots. The fine details of the dashboard typical of that era are complemented by the highly precise reproduction of the Martin-Baker ejection seat.
