Scale overview of the Italeri 1/32 F-104 Starfighter G/S RF

The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter carved out a reputation for straight-line speed and a distinctive silhouette. Introduced in the late 1950s, it continued in service for many years with varied air forces, prized for its interception capability while requiring disciplined handling from pilots.

The widely produced F-104G served NATO fleets in multiple roles, combining a 20mm Vulcan cannon with options for missiles or extra fuel. Later reconnaissance conversions widened its mission profile with specialized pods and sensors.

Kit highlights for serious modellers

This Italeri 1/32 kit targets fidelity with engraved panels and detailed internal bays. The set includes a complete M-61 Vulcan assembly in the gun bay, a realistic cockpit and avionics bay, and optional open or closed air brakes. Photoetched parts increase surface authenticity. With 325 parts and decals covering eight schemes, it gives experienced builders scope for a high quality display model.
