Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

F4E Phantom II Jet - By Sean Steele


Here's another of Sean Steele's great 1/87 aircraft models, this time an F4E phantom II jet. It was built from a long out-of-production AHM kit, but is also identical to the Roco Minitank kit (although Roco labels theirs as a Luftwaffe F4F and only include German decals). The kit is built out-of-the-box, without most of its armament, as it's supposed to appear as its 'en route' on the Canadian air base on his model railroad (that's why it has all the fuel tanks). It's painted with Model Master ADC gray and Sean created the Air National Guard decals using an Alps printer.
