This Academy USAF KC-135R Stratotanker Model Kit captures a legendary air-to-air refuelling aircraft that has served in the U.S. Air Force for eight decades so far. Derived from the Boeing 367-80 Dash 8/B707 commercial airliner in 1956, the KC-135 revolutionised airborne refuelling capabilities. With a production run of over 800 aircraft, it remains one of the most successful refuelling tankers ever built. The KC-135R with CFM F108 engines introduced in the late 1990s marked a significant upgrade in what has become one of the final iterations of this iconic family. The kit allows you to accurately build the Stratotanker in 1:144 scale, with a choice of markings for two aircrafts: KC-135R 58-0018, 22nd ARW, 931st ARG, McConnell AFB 2013 or the KC-135R 58-0023, Illinois Air National Guard ca.2005.Pack size: 29.3 x 27.5 x 9.8cm (11.5 x 10.8 x 3.9 inches)Scale: 1:144 Requires paint and glueDecals for two versions Accurately reproducedUSAF aircraft A great choice for any model collection!
