RESKIT RSF48-0074 F-105 (F, G) "Thunderchief" Male Pilots on Access Ladder (2 pcs) (3D Printed) 1/48

The RESKIT RSF48-0074 set is a unique offering aimed at aviation modelers specializing in the theme of modern armed conflicts, particularly the Vietnam War. The product includes two United States Air Force (USAF) pilot figures in 1/48 scale, depicting an authentic scene of boarding the cockpit of an F-105F/G "Thunderchief" fighter-bomber via an access ladder, a sight very common during preparations for “Wild Weasel” missions.

The Republic F-105 Thunderchief is an American strike fighter and fighter-bomber aircraft, widely used during the Vietnam War (1961–1973). The F-105 became particularly famous in “Wild Weasel” operations, during which its crews, often risking their own lives, sought out and destroyed enemy radars and anti-aircraft positions. The motif showing pilots preparing for a flight on the Thunderchief perfectly captures the atmosphere of that era.
