Product Description
The United States suffered heavy losses and was troubled by Soviet-made surface-to-air missiles (SAMs) and anti-aircraft artillery (AAAs) during the Vietnam War.
Therefore, the development of anti-radar aircraft and missiles progressed relatively early.
The purpose of anti-radar attacks is to receive radio waves from enemy air defense radars and fire control radars, destroy their sources, and neutralize enemy air defense facilities.
These aircraft, tasked with suppressing air defenses (SEAD) through radar attacks, would be given the nickname Wild Weasel.
The F-4G, designated Wild Weasel V, was created in 1975 when 134 existing E-type aircraft were modified. It was seen not only in the continental United States but also in Europe and the Western Pacific during the Cold War.
During the 1990-91 Gulf War, the F-4G was tasked with suppressing Iraqi air defenses, marking the final military service for the F-4 series.
This kit features a newly molded, precisely reproduced underside of the fuselage with reinforced wing structural materials, a bulge housing sensors under the nose radome, a vertical stabilizer, a rear panel, and an instrument panel.
The kit includes markings for two aircraft from the 35th Tactical Fighter Wing (35TFW) in Hillgray camouflage, and two aircraft from the 52nd Fighter Wing, which was deployed in Germany.
