Introducing the RODEN Ukraine 336-1144 Douglas C-133 wPGM – 17 Thor IRBM Scale Model Aircraft. This 1/144 scale plastic model kit from Roden is a must-have for aviation enthusiasts and history buffs alike. The Douglas C-133 w/PGM – 17 Thor IRBM is a mobile strategic aircraft complex that played a key role in history.

Its main purpose was to quickly transport intermediate-range ballistic missiles to remote points on other continents. This allowed the missiles to be placed as close as possible to potential adversaries' borders. From 1959 to 1963, this aircraft transported missiles of this type to the territory of Great Britain.

Notably, during the tense time of the Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962, the PGM-17 Thor missiles, operated from British bases, were influential in convincing the Soviet Union to reverse its decision to deploy missiles in proximity to US borders. After tensions de-escalated, all PGM-17 Thors based in the UK were safely transported back to the US using the C-133A. Crafted with precision and attention to detail, this plastic model kit offers an accurate representation of the Douglas C-133A w/PGM-17 Thor IRBM. It comes unpainted and unassembled, allowing you to truly make it your own.

The kit is brand new and comes in its original packaging. Whether you're an experienced modeler or just starting out, this RODEN Ukraine scale model aircraft is an excellent addition to your collection. Relive the history and intrigue of the C-133A transport aircraft and the PGM-17 Thor missile with this meticulously crafted plastic model kit.
