1/72 F-107A Ultra Sabre (TSM1605)

Discover the intricacies of aviation history with the 1/72 N American F-107 U-Sabre model kit. This snap kit is designed for modelers who appreciate detail and precision. The F-107A made its debut flight on September 10, 1956, and it was initially formulated as a tactical fighter-bomber variant of the F-100. The aircraft impressively reached Mach 1.03 during its first flight and later achieved Mach 2 in tests. Notable for its recessed weapon bay, the F-107A underwent numerous design adjustments, ultimately changing its designation from F-100B to F-107A. Despite the production of only three prototypes that were extensively tested, the aircraft did not enter production due to the selection of the Republic F-105 as the standard fighter-bomber for the Tactical Air Command in late 1957.

This detailed 1:72 scale model captures the essence of the F-107 U-Sabre, offering an incredible opportunity for enthusiasts and collectors to build a piece of aviation history with authentic features and craftsmanship.
