Overview of the Hobby Boss 1/48 F3H-2M Demon

The Hobby Boss 1/48 F3H-2M Demon represents the US Navy interceptor that saw service around the late 1950s and early 1960s. Its role as a missile-armed fighter gives the aircraft a notable profile that the kit recreates for those interested in Cold War naval aviation.

Construction Notes and Showcase Value

Builders will find the parts finely moulded and demanding of careful handling, with attention to fit and alignment producing the best results. The completed model is an attractive addition to a shelf or diorama that focuses on mid century military aircraft.

Period Accuracy and External Detail

Historically the F3H-2M used a Westinghouse J40 powerplant and carried air-to-air missiles. The kit models the external surfaces and proportions faithfully but does not include functional mechanical components or ordnance.
