Notable service and design points

The F-14 A was developed by Grumman and first flew on December 21, 1970, entering service in 1973. Celebrated for its avionics suite and variable-sweep wing, the Tomcat saw operational use in engagements such as those over the Gulf of Sirte and in several Middle Eastern operations.

This 1/48 scale Italeri kit offers detailed components for cockpit, undercarriage and wing surfaces. It requires glue assembly and painting to achieve a museum-style finish, and rewards careful sanding and seam work during construction.
