Product Description
In the late 1990s, the F-14 gained night penetration and targeting capabilities with the addition of the LANTIRN pod.
Instead of conventional missiles, smart bombs are suspended under the fuselage, evolving it into an attack aircraft.
During the Afghan War that broke out in 2001, the aircraft took advantage of its long range and flexible operational capabilities to carry out its missions under the harsh conditions of having no friendly airfields nearby.
The variable-wing design provided excellent low-altitude performance and a large payload, making it a highly accurate bomber, and it marked the finale of the aircraft's combat history in a spectacular fashion.
This kit reproduces the markings worn by VF-154 (commonly known as the Black Knights) immediately after they returned to Japan from Afghanistan in 2003.
Due to the replacement with the F/A-18F, it returned to the United States in a short time, but its appearance remains in the memories of many fans as the `last F-14 seen in Japan`.
The bomb rack under the fuselage has been added as a new part.
