The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter is one of the most famous fighters in the history of aviation and is also one of the longest-lived with an operational life that began at the end of the 1950s and ended, for some military aviation, in the mid-2000s Unique aircraft for its aerodynamic structure with an elongated fuselage and extremely small wing surfaces. Its structure made it ideal as an interceptor fighter capable of exceeding Mach 2.2, thanks to the thrust of the General Electric J79 turbojet engine, with an extraordinary rate of climb at altitude. The kit allows you to reconstruct the “Cockpit” of the famous Starfighter with the typical layout of the aircraft of the 50s and 60s on which many NATO pilots flew.
