About product

North American FJ-1 Fury 1:72 – Valom

An injection-molded short-run kit of the North American FJ-1 Fury carrier jet fighter in 1:72 scale from the Czech manufacturer Valom. The kit usually comes with resin and photo-etched parts and is intended rather for more experienced modelers who are used to short-run kits. The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted; the exact contents of the box are given in the enclosed instructions.

The real subject

The FJ-1 Fury was one of the first operational jet fighters of the US Navy. It was a single-seat machine with a straight wing and a jet engine with the air intake in the nose of the fuselage, from the end of the 1940s. Although it was soon replaced by more modern swept-wing types, it was an important step in the transition of carrier aviation to jet power and it became the forerunner of the later Fury family.

Building and painting tips

On a short-run kit, count on cleaning off the flash and test fitting the parts dry; the joints may call for filling and sanding. Glue the resin and photo-etched parts with super glue. Paint and fit the cockpit before you close up the fuselage. The glossy naval finish comes out well over a smoothly sanded base and a gloss clear coat under the decals; spray the unified surface with an airbrush over a primer.

Who the model is for

  • For anyone interested in the early jet aircraft of the US Navy
  • For collectors of aircraft in 1:72 scale
  • For more experienced modelers used to short-run kits
  • For fans of the Valom brand

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
