Scale Replica: Tamiya 61121 McDonnell Douglas F-4B Phantom II

This 1/48 scale McDonnell Douglas F-4B Phantom II from Tamiya offers a faithful plastic reproduction of the celebrated fighter. The kit balances authentic surface detail and practical assembly steps for hobbyists who want historically accurate models.

Service Record and Key Features

The F-4B entered service in the 1960s and was widely used in Vietnam by the Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps. Its twin engines provided the speed and lift needed for varied mission profiles, and the airframe continued to serve in several roles for many years.

Assembly Details and Customisation

Model dimensions include a fuselage length of 370mm, height of 104mm and wingspan of 243.9mm. Options let you pose the outer wings folded or extended, articulate the tailplane, and choose either the open or closed canopy. The refuelling probe and boarding ladder are supplied as adjustable parts.

The kit contains missile fittings and a drop tank to boost display realism, with decal sheets offering several marking choices, including VF-51 Vietnam War markings, and a clear colour painting guide for finishing touches.
