Academy 1/144 B-47 306th BW(M) Scale Plastic Kit

The Academy 1/144 USAF B-47 306th BW(M) scale model gives hobbyists a focused look at the jet-powered bombers that shaped mid-century air strategy. This finely moulded kit represents the B-47 Stratojet, a significant aircraft in the U.S. Air Force during the Cold War era.

Design Influence and Operational Background

The B-47 introduced swept wings and turbojet propulsion that influenced later bomber designs, and it served as a mainstay of the Strategic Air Command during tense geopolitical periods. Its role helped define long-range strike capability in the mid 20th century.

Build Notes and Display Potential

At 1/144 scale this model captures the Stratojet's profile and makes a tidy addition to any aviation shelf. Its compact footprint works well in grouped displays and lets builders showcase aerodynamic detail without taking excessive space.
