Classic 1/48 Phantom II by Italeri

The McDonnell Douglas F-4E Phantom II is a standout of mid 20th century military aviation. Designed as a fast, all-weather fighter-bomber, it was adopted by multiple branches and allied forces. Its design influenced subsequent jet development and operational doctrine.

Notable systems and flight role

The F-4E is recognised for carrying an M61 Vulcan cannon and the ability to fit AIM-9 Sidewinder and AIM-7 Sparrow missiles. Twin J-79 turbojets provided the power for high speed interception and strike missions. While the Phantom traded some agility for size, its performance and loadcarrying earned it a long service life.

What the kit offers

This Italeri 1/48 scale kit reproduces the Phantom II form with good surface detail and includes a super decal sheet with four variants. It is well suited for modellers wanting a historically accurate display piece or a centrepiece for a Cold War diorama.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Required: Yes
  • Decals: Super Decal Sheet for 4 Versions
Yes, the 1/48 scale size makes it a good choice for airfield or carrier deck scenes. The kit's detail supports close-up display work.
The kit provides solid OEM detail, but experienced modellers may fit resin seats, photoetch, or metal landing gear for extra realism.
Standard plastic model cement or liquid polystyrene cement works well for most parts; use cyanoacrylate for small resin or metal additions if fitted.
Cockpit detail is faithful for the scale, though painting and optional decals will enhance instrument panels and seat harnesses.
