This Tamiya 1/48 scale Late Model Carrier Launch Set depicts the aircraft in the dramatic moments before take-off, complete with a section of carrier deck and crew figures for a realistic diorama build.

Introduced in the 1970s, the F-14A served as the US Navy’s premier fleet defence fighter until its retirement in 2006. Known for its variable-sweep wings and long-range Phoenix missile capability, it played a key role in Cold War and Gulf War operations. This set allows modellers to recreate the power and intensity of a carrier launch in vivid detail.
