1971 Frog RNZAF Skyhawk

[Dave Homewood]

This is interesting, just one year or less into the RNZAF Skyhawk's service it was released as a 1/72 kitset by Frog. There's one here on ebay

I've got one of those in a box in my unmade model drawer!

Shorty does it have the ordinary Jet tailpipe (like USN/RNZAF) or has it the extended pipe fitted to Israeli A4's?

Just interested to know

Thanks

Ordinary tailpipe.

I'm not sure anyone does the extended one in 1:72

Going from ancient memory it's 07. The first Skyhawk lost.

Please correct if I'm wrong.

It is indeed 07 and with a straight probe.
