Academy 12548 1/72 USN F2H-3 VF-41 'Black Aces' Kit Overview

This Academy 1/72 USN F2H-3 VF-41 'Black Aces' model kit gives modellers a satisfying build that recreates the McDonnell F2H Banshee used by the US Navy in the Korean War era. The F2H-3 variant is captured with careful proportions and the kit highlights the airframe lines and wingtip tanks that define this naval fighter.

Legacy and Model Accuracy

The F2H-3 served in air superiority and reconnaissance roles, and this kit reflects that heritage with precision-moulded components and accurate shapes. Builders will notice the elongated fuselage and correct external fittings that help convey the aircraft's operational look when finished.

Assembly Flow and Display Potential

Rated for intermediate builders, the kit needs patient assembly and painting to reach its full potential. Included VF-41 decals add squadron authenticity, making the finished model a strong centrepiece for a military aviation display or diorama.
