Airfix - Twin Pack - Eurofighter Typhoon FGR.4
(Blackjack) + Shorts Tucano T.1 - 1:72
Product Code:
A40003
When it comes to specially presented RAF Typhoon
FGR.4 display aircraft of the past 10 years, the one which served the
longest on the UK airshow circuit, and was unquestionably the most
patriotic in appearance was ZJ914. Resplendent in a smart all-over black
Aggressor scheme, the aircraft also benefited from union flag style
markings and an RAF roundel on each side of its tail, and no matter what
the weather, when this aircraft displayed with afterburners engaged, it
was an aviation sight to behold. The scheme was similar to the one worn
by the RAF Shorts Tucano T.1 display during the 2008 season, which also
had a black airframe, with red, white and blue detailing to mark the
90th anniversary of the Royal Air Force. Two Tucanos were presented in
this manner: ZF210 and ZE338, with one serving as a reserve should the
assigned display aircraft become unserviceable.
