WORLD WIDE SHOPPING MALL. Tamiya Grumman F-14A Tomcat Carrier Launch Set Model Kit Scale 1/48. Hair, Skin and Nails. 1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit of the Grumman F-14A Tomcat. The F-14 Tomcat is a legend of the skies, which served between 1973 and 2006 and – with powerful radar and long-range missiles – was developed for carrier-based units. Its most prolifically produced variant was the F-14A, which itself was given a number of upgrades throughout its production; late F-14As (those produced from the late 1980s) featured a more reliable engine design, and notably, the AN/AXX-1 TCS camera pod, plus the AN/ALQ-126 ECM antenna ahead of the wing gloves. Some even had alterations to the fuselage allowing installation of the TARPS reconnaissance pod. From the early 1990s, the aircraft was capable of mounting bombs on its belly; in conjunction with the AN/AAQ-25 LANTIRN pod, these were laser-guided – the F-14A had evolved into a multi-role fighter. Carrier launches required a steam catapult, to which the aircraft would be harnessed with its nose lowered, variable sweep wing forward, and flaps and slats down. Numerous flight deck crew would be engaged in the launch, including a “Shooter, ” who gave the signal for take-off. Model Fuselage Length: 398mm. Flowing form recreated with fixed depiction of variable sweep wing and deployed flaps/slats. Retracted nose landing gear parts recreate takeoff stance. Includes 2 types of catapult shuttle and paper flight deck sheet. Features one-piece rigid spar. Captures late model chin pod and antenna. Cockpit with late type ejector seats, instrument and side console panels. 3 Figures & 4 marking options. PAINTS AND GLUE NOT INCLUDED. Packaging Dimensions: Length: 48 cm Height: 29 cm Width: 8 cm All measurements are approximates to the nearest 0.5cm. Safety Information: Detailed scale model for hobbyists age 14 and above.

GRUMMAN TBF AVENGER WITH AIRCRAFT CARRIER DIORAMA. Im a retired Navy vet who has built models for 35 years and won IPMS contests. This diorama took countless hours of craftsmanship, while wearing a professional grade magnifying visor. My models are museum quality and in fact were displayed at various military bases. The result of this labor of love is an accurate slice of naval WW2 history that you will be proud to display in your home or office. Markings are from USS ESSEX, ca 1944, the double triangle is hand-painted. Subtle weathering breathes life and interest into the scene as aviators (dont call a Navy flyboy a pilot) plot their upcoming mission. Subtle details such as the plotting board, control panel in cockpit and moto-tug, sidearms in case of bailout over enemy territory, exhaust stains, deck wear and tear will amaze you and all who see this diorama. Of course i would be happy to send you progress photos as the build progresses. Many thanks for reading this.

A-6E INTRUDER A new era in Naval Aviation began with the introduction of the A-6 Intruder to the fleet in February 1963. The world`s first all-weather attack aircraft, the Intruder provided the capability to launch low-level strikes against targets at extended ranges without regard to darkness or weather conditions. Serving throughout the Vietnam War, the A-6 continued as the Navy`s front line medium-attack aircraft through Operation Desert Storm, during which Navy and Marine Corps A-6s logged more than 4,700 combat sorties. They were not retired until 1997. From the beginning Intruders featured Digital Integrated Attack Navigation Equipment (DIANE), which provided an electronic display of targets and geographical features even in low visibility conditions. Introduced on the A-6E version of the aircraft, the Target Recognition Attack Multisensors (TRAM) system combined Forward Looking Infrared Radar (FLIR) and laser sensors with an onboard computer. Located in a ball turret beneath the nose of the aircraft, TRAM enabled a higher degree of bombing accuracy by locating targets and ascertaining their ranges, allowing the A-6 crew to detect ground undulations as small as a plowed field. Despite initial difficulties in Vietnam, the A-6 proved itself in the murky weather conditions over Southeast Asia, oftentimes carrying out single-plane or two-plane nocturnal raids with devastating accuracy that produced disproportionate results. This was dramatically illustrated when two A-6s made a night strike dropping twenty-six 500 lb. Bombs against a North Vietnamese power plant. The damage was such that the enemy high command was convinced that B-52 heavy bombers had been at work. The Intruder served as the aircraft carrier`s “big stick” in combat over Lebanon, Libya and Iraq. During Operation Desert Storm, Navy and Marine Corps A-6s logged more than 4,700 combat sorties, providing close air support, destroying enemy air defenses, attacking Iraqi naval units and hitting strategic targets. All told, 687 A-6s were delivered to the Navy, the last being retired from front line service in 1997. The A-6E Intruder on display (Bureau Number 155610) was delivered in 1968 and spent ten years of its service in Attack Squadron (VA) 196, in whose markings it is painted. Among the carriers in which it deployed were Enterprise (CVN-65) and Ranger (CVA-61).
