1/72 US Air Force Trainer T-33A Shooting Star Skyblazers

Description

This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.

The T-33 trainer jet aircraft has supported the Japan Air Self-Defense Force from its earliest days, but it fulfilled the exact same role for the U.S. Air Force. It was originally designed as an advanced version of the P-80 fighter aircraft, so since it had the same performance as a fighter, the T-33 was deployed to frontline combat units. This kit from Platz allows you to build a T-33 marked as belonging to any of three different combat units; the 36th Fighter-Bomber Squadron’s T-33s were particularly noteworthy with their blue-and-white striped markings on the nose and tail. This squadron’s T-33s were also used to support their aerobatic team known as the Skyblazers. This kit features parts division for easy assembly and an accurate finish; the cockpit interior, instrument panel and control stick are all highly realistic, as is the landing gear. The air brakes can be assembled opened or closed, and the kit includes high-quality silkscreened decals from Cartograf. You’ll love it — order yours today!
