RESKIT RSU72-0238 F-105 (G,D) "THUNDERCHIEF" NOSE CONE WITH PITOT TUBE FOR TRUMPETER KIT (METAL & 3D PRINTED) 1/72

RESKIT RSU72-0238 F-105 (G,D) "THUNDERCHIEF" NOSE CONE WITH PITOT TUBE FOR TRUMPETER KIT (METAL & 3D PRINTED) 1/72 is a high-quality set dedicated to enhancing the F-105 "Thunderchief" aircraft model in 1/72 scale, designed for assembly on Trumpeter kits. The product was created for modelers who demand the highest precision and realistic details in Cold War aviation miniatures.

The F-105 Thunderchief, known for its large size and used by the USAF, was one of America's key bomber and strike aircraft during the Cold War, especially throughout the Vietnam War from 1961 to 1970. This machine, powered by a single jet engine, took part in the most challenging "Wild Weasel" missions, destroying enemy radars and anti-aircraft defense positions. The main air forces of the United States used the F-105 from the late 1950s up until the early 1980s.

The presented upgrade set is a modeling detail made both from metal (pitot tube) and with 3D printing technology (nose cone), ensuring excellent reproduction of the shape and proportions of the original. Thanks to 3D printing technology, it was possible to achieve extremely accurate detailing, particularly noticeable on the aircraft in this scale. The metal pitot tube is not only realistic but also resistant to mechanical damage during assembly and display of the model.
