Academy 1/72 Kfir C2/C7

The Kfir C2/C7 is an Israel Aircraft Industries all-weather multirole combat aircraft equipped with Israeli avionics, with its name 'Kfir' meaning 'Lion Cub' in Hebrew, and this kit features an accurately detailed cockpit and landing gear, precisely engraved panel lines, and a choice of five different markings. Derived directly from the famous delta-winged Mirage chassis, this advanced supersonic fighter integrates the robust American General Electric J79 turbojet engine to maximize performance. The aircraft is easily recognized by its distinctive fixed canard wings placed just behind the intakes to drastically enhance low-speed maneuverability. This premium unassembled 1/72 scale static plastic kit is meticulously engineered by Academy Plastic Model to provide a high-quality building experience. The exterior surfaces are covered with beautifully sharp, recessed panel lines that respond exceptionally well to standard scale wash detailing. Builders can construct either the C2 or upgraded C7 variant, complete with an extensive array of optional precision bombs, air-to-air missiles, external fuel tanks, and highly realistic landing gear struts.
