Tamiya Grumman F-14A Tomcat (1:48 Scale)

Developed for the United States Navy, the Grumman F-14 Tomcat became known for its variable-sweep wing design and twin-engine, two-seat layout. This Tamiya assembly kit depicts the F-14A Tomcat variant in 1/48 scale, capturing the aircraft in a parked configuration with landing gear deployed.

Built for detailed construction, the kit includes decals and three marking options: two high-visibility U.S. Navy Fighter Squadron schemes for VF-84 (Jolly Rogers) and VF-2 (Bounty Hunters), plus one Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force (IRIAF) unit. Moveable swing wings allow angles from 20–75 degrees, with separate parts supplied to represent the different airbag and sealing plate shapes at 20 and 75 degrees. A canopy that can be posed open, deployable or stowed ladder and step components, and two seated crew figures add further realism, while missile parts depict AIM-9 Sidewinders, AIM-7 Sparrow and AIM-54 Phoenix loadouts.
