Platz 1/72 JASDF T-33 w/Engine

In 1955, the USA supplied the T-33A to the JASDF, and the JASDF started operations with this aircraft. It had the Allison J33 engine, and the rear part of the fuselage was separable, which made the mechanical checks easier. In 1956, Kawasaki started production of the T-33 under license. This T-33A operated as the JASDF's main trainer, as it was ranked equal to the F-86 Saber delivered to airbases in Japan.  The newly tooled engine is accurately represented, and the rear part of the fuselage is removable; the dolly is also included. 9 types of marking decals are included as well.
