The Airfix SEPECAT Jaguar GR1 model kit captures a key aircraft from Cold War-era aviation. Built to a 1:72 scale, the kit includes 79 parts and two build scheme options, making it ideal for intermediate builders at skill level 2.
The SEPECAT Jaguar GR1 was the result of a 1960s Anglo-French collaboration, developed for tactical strike missions, reconnaissance, and close air support. Its high-set wings and long undercarriage made it suitable for operating from unprepared runways and rough airstrips.
A memorable moment in the Jaguar's service came in 1975, when it made a parachute-assisted landing on the unopened M55 motorway in front of national media. With a service life spanning 33 years in the RAF, the Jaguar GR1 remains a symbol of reliability and adaptability, now ready to be built and displayed by aviation enthusiasts.
