Hobby Master 1/72 Air Power Series HA3103 is this superb 1/72 scale model of F-102A Delta Dagger 0-60981, of 342 AWS, 114CW, Hellenic Air Force in 1974. Production run of 753 models, of which only a few were imported to the UK.
The Hellenic AF (Elliniki Polimiki Aeroporia Greek AF) took delivery of 20
Daggers in June 1969 as well as 2 (some sources say 6) TF-102A for training. The aircraft arrived painted in the original U.S. gray scheme with the HAF roundels. In 1973 the aircraft received their two-tone green, tan and gray schemes. These aircraft equipped the 342nd All Weather Squadron at Tanagra. These aircraft had a rather short service length in Greece because the F-102’s were replaced by the Mirage F-1CG in 1977.
The Convair F-102 Delta Dagger was designed to be an interceptor aircraft and act as the core of USAF air defenses in the late 1950s. The F-102 first appeared in service in 1956 with the task to intercept Soviet bombers. The official name for the F-102 was “Delta Dagger” but the most common term used was “Deuce”. There was 889 F-102As manufactured when production ended in September 1958.
Unbelievably low special price!!
