Hasegawa 1/72 F-14A Tomcat Vf2 Bounty Hunters 76 Model Kit

The F-14A Tomcat in VF-2 "Bounty Hunters" 1976 markings represents the legendary fighter squadron during the Tomcat's early operational years. VF-2 was one of the first Pacific Fleet squadrons to transition to the F-14A, receiving their Tomcats in 1972. The 1976 marking scheme features the distinctive Bounty Hunters insignia—a top hat, pistol, and star—that has been in use since the squadron's establishment in 1922, making it one of the oldest continuously active Navy fighter squadrons. The early F-14A featured TF30 engines and gloss light gull gray over white paint. Hasegawa captures the early Tomcat in Pacific Fleet markings.
