The North American XB-70 Valkyrie is an experimental supersonic strategic bomber developed in the 1960s for the US Air Force. The aircraft, which was intended for production and deployment as a nuclear payload carrier, could reach speeds above Mach 3 and an altitude of 21,000 meters. Although only two prototypes were built (one of which crashed during testing), the XB-70 remains one of the most spectacular aircraft of the Cold War – a symbol of advanced US aviation technology and a platform for aerodynamic and material endurance testing.

The offered Armory Models set is made from high-grade resin, ensuring sharp details and durability of parts. The wheels feature perfectly rendered tread, valves, and proportions characteristic for this aircraft. The tyres have been reproduced with a realistic flattening effect, reflecting the weight of the XB-70 standing on the runway. The set components can replace plastic kit parts, highlighting the professionalism and attention to detail in model building. The set does not include any extra photo-etched or metal parts, but its quality guarantees complete satisfaction with the final result.
