The world famous American aerial acrobatic team, the Thunderbirds, first got their start in May of 1953. During WWII, many young and inexperienced pilots were sent into aerial combat flying heavy and difficult to maneuver aircraft. Public demonstrations of aerial maneuverability and aircraft safety gave younger pilots much needed training and ensured that they were battle worthy before encountering real combat. The F-84G Thunderjet gloriously led these demonstrations, securing itself a position in the illustrious history of the Thunderbirds team. Tamiya recreated a 1/48 scale version of this aircraft last year. For 2001, an all new 1/72 Chrome-metallic version of the Thunderbirds aircraft is being released, sporting decals for the 1953 or 1954 seasons. This detailed 1/72 scale model has been designed with ease-of-assembly as a high priority and comes with a handy display stand.
