Historical description

The F-111C is the Australian version of the variable-sweep wing multirole aircraft known as the "Aardvark." It served from the early 1970s for four decades, playing a key role as a strategic bomber and support fighter in the RAAF. Pivot pylons integrated with LAU-105 launchers were used to carry AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles and light armament, which distinguished them from those used in American versions and made them an essential component for modelers building Australian aviation subjects of this era.

Why choose this set?

RESKIT RS48-0501 guarantees absolute dimensional accuracy and detailed reproduction. 3D printing allows for faithful representation of the pivot mechanism and thin edges that are essential for F-111C model realism. The set is especially recommended for advanced modelers and enthusiasts of Australian and Cold War aviation who seek complete authenticity in armament. Rated as difficulty level 3/5 – requires basic experience working with resin parts but is not too difficult for intermediate modelers.

We recommend this product to all military aviation enthusiasts, collectors of 1/48 scale F-111C models, and anyone wishing to upgrade their model with the most accurate details true to historical and technical realities.
