Developed in the United States, the RF-80A played a key role during the Korean War (1950–1953), being the first jet reconnaissance aircraft used by the United States Air Force (USAF). These fast and reliable machines carried out dangerous photographic missions, often over enemy-controlled areas. Their advanced design enabled the collection of valuable intelligence, and the Lockheed RF-80A contributed to many United Nations military successes.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eKit contents and product features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePlastic 1\/72 scale kit – perfect balance between detail and compact size\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFuselage and wing details accurately reflect the configuration from the Korean War era\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIncludes decals for USAF markings used in Korea\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHigh-quality plastic – precisely rendered panel lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eStep-by-step assembly instructions, clear for intermediate modelers\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eGlue and paints not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eCategory and purpose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    This product belongs to the following category: plastic model kit intended for aviation modelers interested in military aviation history of the 20th century and the Korean War period.
