The Academy 12638 kit models the USAF KC-135R Stratotanker in 1/144 scale, offering a tidy and realistic subject for enthusiasts. This small-scale kit emphasises the tanker profile and refuelling gear that define the KC-135R.
The KC-135R has been a backbone for mid and long range air operations thanks to its refuelling capability. The R update brought improved propulsion and systems, and this kit helps modellers appreciate those upgrades at a reduced scale.
Builders will find the 1/144 size manageable for precise detailing and quick completion. When finished, the model makes a neat display item, fitting cleanly into shelf space or a mixed military aviation scene.
