Description:

This model depicts one of the Douglas A-4 Skyhawks shown in the famous 1986 movie "Top Gun“ starring Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis. The aircraft is piloted by CDR Mike "Viper" Metcalf, played by Tom Skerritt, during a training mission against LT Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, played by Cruise, in his legendary Grumman F-14A Tomcat. The A-4 Skyhawk is a single-engine, single-seat light attack aircraft designed for the United States Navy and the United States Marine Corps. A total of 2,960 aircraft were built between 1954 and 1979. The kit is part of the Italeri Top Gun F-14A vs. A-4F model set No. 1422. It is a pretty simple kit with relatively low parts count and not too much detail. The included decals are actually of good quality, however I am not sure about the coloring. For the build I chose Vallejo Model Air paints, using the Federal Standard codes from the build instructions as a reference. Decals, the illustrations on the box as well as the aircraft shown in the movie look a lot different, so I can’t tell if my model has the correct colors. Let me know what you think of this build. Your comments and opinions are highly appreciated. Please bear in mind I am not a professional modeler, I just build these models for fun and relaxation and to help me regain my mental and physical health. Stay tuned to my channel and don’t miss out on upcoming build videos and more! Please Comment, Like, Share and consider becoming a Subscriber to my channel. Thanks for watching! Cheers, Oliver/RWO
