Widely used in Germany and Italy from the 1960s, it served as a training platform and support for combat pilots for several decades during the Cold War, participating in numerous training and operational missions over Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eAdvantages and recommended group of modelers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Aires 4876 set is strongly recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers who value a high level of realism and authenticity in 1\/48 scale detail. Thanks to the use of very thin and precise resin castings, the detailing of the Kinetic model's wheel bay interior reaches a whole new level. I particularly recommend this product to those who value high-quality finishing for their aircraft models or build dioramas with open landing gear bays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAssembly difficulty: 3\/5 (recommended basic skills in working with resin parts: fitting, sanding, and cyanoacrylate gluing)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eBy choosing Aires 4876, you will provide your TF-104 Starfighter model with a unique level of detailing and the highest historical accuracy – an essential set for every jet aircraft enthusiast of the NATO Cold War era!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"Aires","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54763459838286,"sku":"AIRE4876","price":13.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/5149\/0638\/files\/4fc2a8a476aa97e84602638c6c9a0fd8.jpg?v=1756365873","url":"https:\/\/plastmodel.com\/products\/80549-aires-4876-tf-104-startfighter-wheel-bay-148-kinetic-pl","provider":"Plastmodel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
