About this model: On September 21, 1953, shortly after the Korean War armistice was signed, North Korean pilot No Kum-Sok defected to South Korea with a fully armed MiG-15bis, which was then given U.S. Air Force markings and test flown at Okinawa by Harold "Tom" Collins and Chuck Yeager.
Replicating that captured MiG-15bis when it was further tested at Wright-Patterson AFB, this 1/72 scale die cast Hobby Master model features engraved panel lines, a detailed cockpit with an optional position canopy and a pilot figure, optional position landing gear, authentic markings including "TC" (for "Tom and Chuck"), and more. Measures approximately 6" long with a 5½" wingspan and includes a display stand.
