  • HISTORY ASPECTS:
  • The McDonnell Douglas F-4E Phantom II assigned as No. 1 aircraft of the United States Air Force Thunderbirds during the 1973–74 season represented a bold and dramatic chapter in the history of the USAF demonstration team. Operated by the United States Air Force, the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II was selected to replace the F-100 Super Sabre, bringing far greater speed, power, and presence to the aerial demonstration role. The F-4E’s twin-engine performance and distinctive silhouette made it one of the most visually impressive aircraft ever flown by the Thunderbirds.
  • The 1973–74 Thunderbirds season was especially significant as it showcased the Phantom II’s capabilities in precision formation flying, high-speed passes, and aerobatic maneuvers designed to inspire public confidence in U.S. airpower. Unlike its combat configuration, the demonstration F-4E was modified for safety and performance in close formation flying, with smoke-generating systems installed for airshow visibility. While the aircraft itself was a combat veteran design, its role with the Thunderbirds was purely demonstrative, symbolizing strength, professionalism, and technological superiority rather than direct combat operations.
  • Although the Thunderbirds’ F-4E did not participate in active combat missions, the aircraft type had already established a formidable combat record in conflicts such as the Vietnam War, where it served in air superiority, ground attack, and reconnaissance roles. It also saw widespread use during Cold War tensions globally, reinforcing U.S. air dominance in multiple theaters. The Thunderbirds’ adoption of the Phantom II during this period reflected both confidence in the aircraft’s performance and a desire to showcase frontline military technology to the public.
  • This 1:72 scale model is a striking tribute to one of the most powerful demonstration jets ever flown. Featuring the iconic red, white, and blue Thunderbirds livery and detailed Phantom II design, it captures the speed, precision, and spectacle of this legendary airshow era. Perfect for collectors of military and aerobatic aviation, this replica celebrates the intersection of combat power and aerial artistry, add it to your collection today for a dynamic and historic centerpiece.

Knowledgeable and helpful
I purchased a new Sony TV and was having a lot of trouble coordinating the settings. After struggling for 1.5 days, I gave up and called the number for Asurion. There was a reasonable wait while I found the "right" tech person, but it was worthwhile. He was knowledgeable and patient. He gave me confidence and we worked together to solve all my issues. At the end he became pressuring, wanted me to buy a monthly gig with them.

They honor their product.
I've been dealing with Asurion for over a decade now. They're my first choice when making a purchase that I know I'm going to have around for a while. Asurion backs its product to the hilt. I purchased a mid-range priced printer about 2 1/2 yrs. ago along with a 3yr. warranty from Asurion to cover any unexpected 'surprises' that might happen to pop up. Fast forward to approximately 3 months ago, when my printer decided that it wanted to start acting up. The print quality was taking a nose dive; colors were beginning to drop out, showing streaks and fading. Clarity and sharpness are virtually gone. I contacted Asurion about the problem. I couldn't have found a nicer rep to deal with. She said not to worry and within minutes had the situation under control. She sent me all the information and pre-paid postage on how to pack and have my unit shipped to their repair facilities. In less than a week my unit was repaired and returned to me. However, this is not the end of the story. Within a few days, my unit was acting up again and doing the same thing it went in for. Again, I got hold of Asurion (Same great service, different girl). We repeated the same process as before, but this time the unit was there about a week longer. When I finally received the unit, I immediately hooked it up and put it through the numbers, testing everything. To be blunt, the print quality was worse than the 1st time it went in for service. After voicing my displeasure (basically having a hissy-fit), I regained my composure and contacted Asurion, again! This time they told me that since their techs were unable to resolve the issue and to not have me waiting any longer than I have already, they're going ahead and refunding the total amount I paid for the unit. Even though it was somewhat of a Pain-in-the-ASS to go through, I couldn't be happier. Within 48 hrs. I had my refund in hand and I turned around and purchased a replacement Printer. Moral to the story, have a contingency plan, Just in case. Check out Asurion: Great customer service - Nice people, very competitive pricing for their products and they honor their word by their actions. Highly recommend Asurion to anyone.
