HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor is widely regarded as one of the most advanced air superiority fighters ever built. Developed for the United States Air Force, the aircraft combines stealth technology, supercruise capability, advanced avionics, and exceptional maneuverability into a single platform. Designed during the closing years of the Cold War and entering operational service in the early twenty-first century, the F-22 was created to ensure American air dominance against the most sophisticated threats. Its ability to detect, track, and engage enemy aircraft before being detected has made it a cornerstone of U.S. airpower.
F-22A Raptor serial number 01-4023 served with the 43rd Fighter Squadron, part of the 325th Fighter Wing at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida. Known as the "Hornets," the 43rd Fighter Squadron has played a critical role in training and preparing F-22 pilots for operational assignments throughout the Air Force. Aircraft assigned to the unit are used extensively for advanced instruction, tactical development, and combat readiness training. During its service with the squadron, 01-4023 helped train the next generation of Raptor pilots, ensuring that operational units received highly skilled aircrews capable of exploiting the aircraft's full potential.
This particular aircraft is associated with Major Joshua "Cabo" Gunderson, a respected F-22 pilot whose name became linked with the aircraft through special appearances, demonstrations, and collector memorabilia featuring his signature. Such pilot-associated aircraft are especially popular among aviation enthusiasts because they connect a specific airframe to the men and women who fly these highly advanced machines. The inclusion of a pilot's signature card enhances the historical and collectible value of the aircraft, providing a personal connection to modern fighter aviation.
While the 43rd Fighter Squadron primarily serves a training mission, the F-22 Raptor fleet has participated in several operational deployments and military campaigns. Raptors have supported Operation Inherent Resolve in the Middle East, conducted air superiority patrols, precision strike missions, and deterrence operations in various regions around the world. The aircraft continues to play a vital role in maintaining U.S. air superiority and supporting allied security objectives. As one of the most sophisticated fighters ever produced, the F-22 remains a symbol of technological excellence and combat effectiveness.
This 1:72 scale model faithfully reproduces F-22A Raptor 01-4023 of the 43rd Fighter Squadron, 325th Fighter Wing, associated with Maj. Joshua "Cabo" Gunderson. Featuring authentic markings, highly detailed surface features, and an included pilot signature card, this replica captures the sleek appearance and unmatched presence of the world's premier air superiority fighter. An outstanding addition for collectors of modern military aviation, it is a fitting tribute to both the remarkable aircraft and the skilled pilots who operate it.
