RESKIT RS72-0520 Skyflash (RB71/Av.71) missiles (4 pcs) (3D Printed) 1/72 – set of air-to-air missiles for 1/72 scale aircraft models

The RESKIT RS72-0520 Skyflash (RB71/Av.71) set in 1/72 scale is a highly detailed kit of four medium-range Skyflash air-to-air missiles produced with state-of-the-art 3D printing technology. These precisely rendered models are perfect as armament accessories for Tornado F.3, Phantom FGR.2, and Viggen JA 37 fighter models—the mainstay aircraft of the British and Swedish air forces during the Cold War.

The Skyflash missile was developed based on the American AIM-7 Sparrow, enhancing its design with a new semi-active radar homing system. As a result, British and Swedish forces obtained an air-to-air weapon capable of effectively countering modern enemy aircraft in any weather conditions—it was widely used across Europe from the mid-1970s until the end of the 20th century. Skyflash missiles are especially well known for their deployment on RAF Tornado F.3 fighters and Swedish JA 37 Viggen jets (designated RB71). This system was one of the pillars of NATO's and Sweden's aerial shield during the Cold War era.
