Academy 12451 - 1/72 F-4F-4 Wildcat Naval Fighter Kit

The Academy 1/72 Wildcat model reproduces the characteristic lines of the WWII naval fighter, emphasising simple yet accurate surface detail. It provides a tidy project for those who collect wartime aircraft in small scale.

Historical Role and Scale Interest

The Wildcat was a workhorse of early carrier operations and remains a popular subject for scale modellers. This kit enables builders to recreate period paint schemes and to study the aircrafts compact structural form at 1/72 scale.
