Collector and Modeller Brief: F-100F Super Sabre

The twin-seat F-100F Super Sabre played a key part in early supersonic flight training and saw operational service during the Vietnam era. Its dual cockpit made it valuable for converting pilots to high-speed jets while still performing combat-related sorties. This Italeri release captures those historical roles at 1/72 scale.

Scale accuracy and kit features

The Italeri 1398 delivers a faithful 1/72 representation, including the elongated fuselage to house the second cockpit. A generous decal sheet supplies five marking choices so builders can recreate specific liveries or create a custom finish reflecting the period.

Building advice and presentation

Assembly is rewarding for hobbyists who enjoy fine detail. Use the included colour instruction sheet for accurate painting, and display the finished model alongside other Cold War types for a coherent collection focus.

Yes, the kit reflects the twin-seat configuration with the necessary cockpit parts. Detail level is appropriate for 1/72 scale; modellers can add aftermarket bits if they want finer cockpit detail.
Decals are designed for 1/72 scale and perform best over a well-prepared and gloss-sealed surface. Use decal softener for complex curves to avoid silvering.
Absolutely. Its 1/72 size and period-accurate lines make the Italeri 1398 a convenient addition to any Cold War or Vietnam-era air group display.
