The F-104 Starfighter served in the United States Air Force (USAF) from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. Known for its sleek design and impressive speed capabilities, the F-104 was used primarily for air defense missions and played a crucial role in the Cold War-era arms race; and later became the backbone of many NATO countries' air arms. Despite its flaws, the F-104 remains a significant part of USAF history and its legacy lives on in the hearts of aviation enthusiasts around the world.
This comprehensive decal set features fifteen (15) marking options for Cold War era USAF Starfighters, both from active duty units and the three Guard units selected to fly the type. The set includes a very comprehensive set of stencilling with the attention to detail you expect from Caracal.
