North American RA-5C Vigilante 1/48 Scale Trumpeter 02809

The RA-5C was developed in parallel with the A-5B, and first flew on 30 June 1962. The RA-5C incorporated all the new features of the A-5B, such as the humpback fuselage, the big flaps, and the leading-edge BLC system. The new BLC scheme proved a little tricky, as it required more engine power. As the RA-5C was substantially heavier than the A-5A, this meant that once the BLC system was engaged the aircraft lost power and tended to drop abruptly. The major difference from the A-5B was the RA-5C's equipment. Scale    1:48 Item Type    Static Aircraft Model Brief    Length: 475mm Wingspan: 336.7mm Total Parts    237pcs
