Why this kit matters

The Eurofighter Typhoon FGR.4 is the Royal Air Force's primary multirole combat aircraft. Aircraft ZJ914, known as "Blackjack", became one of the RAF's best-known display aircraft thanks to its distinctive all-black Aggressor-inspired paint scheme with Union Flag artwork on the tail. It appeared at numerous air shows and quickly became a favourite among aviation enthusiasts.

The Shorts Tucano T.1 served as the RAF's basic fast-jet trainer for more than three decades, preparing thousands of military pilots before they progressed to frontline aircraft. This twin pack celebrates two memorable RAF display aircraft finished in matching black liveries, making it an unusual and eye-catching addition to any 1/72 aircraft collection.

How to use it

Remove the parts carefully from the sprues, assemble using plastic model glue, then paint following the supplied paint guide before applying the decals. Once complete, display both aircraft together to recreate a distinctive RAF display pairing.

This is a plastic model kit. Assembly, paint, and glue are required. It is not a toy.
