Hasegawa 1:48 F-8E Crusader

The F-8 Crusader was the US Navy's first practical supersonic fighter. In September 1951, the navy announced a call for bids from major aircraft manufacturers for a supersonic fighter capable of carrier-borne operations. Although supersonic technology was still in its infancy at the time, the designers at Chance-Vought were able to win the contract on June 29, 1952.

Apart from being a little dusty, this kit taken from our Legacy Collection is in 'as new' condition.
