Airfix MiG-17F Fresco and Douglas A-4B Skyhawk Dogfight Double Model Gift Set

Create a familiar sight during the Vietnam War with this excellent Dogfight Double Model Gift Set from Airfix MiG-17F Fresco and Douglas A-4B Skyhawk. This is perfect for learning fine motor skills and create a beautiful and historical model, and maybe learn a few things along the way.

Armed with cannons, bombs and unguided missiles, the little A4 Skyhawks would skim across the rice paddies and hug the densely forested mountains of Vietnam in the early days of the Vietnam war of the 1960s. Against them ranged small arms fire, artillery, guided surface to air missiles and MiGs of the North Vietnamese Air Force.

Alongside the supersonic MiG-21 was the older subsonic MiG-17F. This aircraft, codenamed Fresco, was a very maneuverable opponent, and certainly a match for the Skyhawk. Between them, they formed the backbone of the air war over Vietnam.
