To mark a historic appearance at the Volkel Air Force Days in the Netherlands in June 2019, this upgraded F-4E Avionics Upgrade Program (AUP) airframe received a spectacular, colorful commemorative livery. The design is deep in tactical imagery: the left vertical stabilizer depicts Ares (Mars), the ancient Greek God of War who has stood as the 338 Squadron symbol since 1974, while the right side portrays the unit's friendly \"Spooky\" mascot holding a tulip while wearing traditional Dutch clogs. This premium release captures the jet's operational ghost camouflage scheme combined with a vivid, high-visibility orange-and-blue commemorative central fuel tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for curators of custom air show schemes and modern European tactical air arms, this Air Power Series release serves as a definitive historical artifact. The 1:72 scale model is engineered with premium accuracy, showcasing an intricately crafted fuselage complete with independently opening rear and forward cockpit canopies. Lifting them reveals a fully detailed dual-crew interior complete with pad-printed instrument panel dials, dual control sticks, and realistic ejection seat pull handles. Key engineering hallmarks include the solid metal wing assemblies featuring raised wing-tips and a distinct \"dog-toothed\" leading edge that transitions seamlessly into the main frame, alongside standard land-based flat leading edge elevators. Complete with a full complement of detachable operational ordnance and fuel tanks, this museum-grade piece dominates on its presentation display stand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFact Sheet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tcv-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hobby Master\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Air Power Series\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel code:\u003c\/strong\u003e HA19016\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAircraft:\u003c\/strong\u003e McDonnell Douglas F-4E Phantom II AUP\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial\/Tail Code:\u003c\/strong\u003e #72-1507\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLivery Theme:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"God of War\" Volkel Air Force Days 2019 Commemorative Scheme\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hellenic Air Force (HAF) 338 Mira \"Ares\" (338 Squadron)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Volkel AB, Netherlands \/ Greece\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDate\/Period:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 2019\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1:72\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Diecast Metal \u0026amp; High-Grade Plastic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Custom illustrated tail fin art (Ares and Spooky), high-visibility anniversary center drop tank, opening dual-canopy cockpit, pad-printed gauges and ejection seat loops, dog-tooth leading edge wings, detachable defensive ordnance, presentation stand\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel Dimensions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tcv-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.5\" or 26.7 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWingspan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.25\" or 15.9 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eCondition\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel Condition - Mint (10\/10)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComes complete.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBox condition - Excellent (8\/10)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome shelf wear is present on the cover and inner box edges but structurally sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePhotographed under studio lighting to highlight even the smallest imperfections.
