Italeri 1/72 F-84G Republic Thunderjet Model Kit

The Republic F-84G Thunderjet was America's first operational nuclear-capable fighter-bomber and a key NATO frontline aircraft during the early Cold War. The straight-wing Thunderjet served extensively during the Korean War as a ground attack aircraft and was supplied to numerous NATO allies. The F-84G introduced in-flight refueling capability and could carry a tactical nuclear weapon. This 1/72 scale Italeri kit captures the Thunderjet's clean, straight-wing design that bridged the gap between WWII propeller fighters and the swept-wing era.
