Hasegawa 1/72 F-4EJ KAI 302 Squadron F-4 Final Model Kit

The F-4EJ Kai in 302nd Squadron "F-4 Final" markings commemorates the retirement of the Phantom from JASDF service. Japan was one of the last operators of the F-4 Phantom worldwide, retiring the type in 2021 after over four decades of distinguished service. The 302nd Squadron's final Phantom flight marked the end of an era for this legendary interceptor in Japanese skies. The farewell livery featured special tail art and commemorative markings that honored the aircraft's decades of faithful service. Hasegawa captures this poignant final chapter of the Phantom's operational career.
