One of the most dramatic pairings in aviation history — the Boeing B-52 Stratofortress serving as the airborne launch platform for the North American X-15 rocket plane. Atlantis Models captures both aircraft in this classic 1/175 scale kit, a faithful reissue of the beloved Revell original that has delighted modelers for decades.
The finished model measures 11 inches long with a 13-inch wingspan, making it a striking display piece that tells the story of America's high-altitude research program in the late 1950s and 1960s. At just 40 pieces, this kit is approachable for builders of all skill levels while still delivering a satisfying, shelf-worthy result.
