This model is built very near to scale, within a few inches of actual general dimensions. It is a complete update and rebuild from our original model series built in 2006. Updating was prompted by the request of an aviation museum in Australia, displaying an F-111G. They were thrilled with this model and others also supplied by Dreamscape. Much more detail, more accuracy and better flight controls are provided in this 90% rebuilt model. This model is fully textured and has many animateable features including stabilators, flaps, rudder, landing gear retraction and landing gear doors. Canopy can be opened and the cockpit has more detail than the original by far. It is also available in a wide variety of formats.
