The shark was painted on for a reason. You were meant to see it coming.
Few liveries are as instantly readable as the VF-111 Sundowners — the red sunburst tail and the toothy shark mouth on the nose. This 1:72 diecast wears one of the most photographed schemes the Tomcat ever carried.
The Aircraft
The F-14 paired variable-sweep wings with the long arm of the AIM-54 Phoenix — built to guard the fleet from beyond the horizon. Wings forward for the carrier approach, swept back for the chase.
The Squadron
VF-111 "Sundowners" carried one of the Navy's most recognizable marks — the shark mouth handed down from the Flying Tigers tradition. We build this model to honor the people behind the paint.
The Model
- Scale: 1:72 — roughly 11" wingspan
- Diecast metal body, pre-built and pre-painted
- Includes display stand
- Recommended age 14+ — a collector's display piece, not a toy
Why Collectors Want It
The shark-mouth Tomcat is a grail scheme. It reads across a room, photographs beautifully, and tells its own story before you say a word.
