The early F-104 undercarriage wheels feature an exquisitely detailed tread, realistic rim details, and features that cannot be achieved with standard plastic sprues.

The F-104 Starfighter, designed by the American company Lockheed, served mainly in the United States Air Force, but also became the primary fighter of many NATO countries, including Germany, Italy, Canada, and the Netherlands. Used primarily during the Cold War, from the late 1950s to the mid-1980s, the F-104 was renowned for its unprecedented performance – speed, altitude, and futuristic silhouette. It took part in many military exercises and was the backbone of air force modernization in countries of the North Atlantic Alliance.

The presented wheel set is made from the highest quality resin, guaranteeing crisp detail and impressive durability of all components. The kit also includes photo-etched parts for the precise finishing of wheel rims and characteristic technical features. Thanks to the resin, the model captures the effect of tire sag under the aircraft's weight and subtle surface variations, highlighting authenticity.
