"Great Kit!"
adam
This is a fantastic kit. It's a small and manageable project if you're a beginner, but has great detail for more advanced builders. The large, wide canopy is great for showing off the cockpit detail in open or closed positions. There are many options for how to build it, such as the choices of under-wing weapons and whether or not to include the in-flight refueling probe. The exterior has very finely detailed panel lines, and it's an unusual shape that attracts attention among other models when on display. It comes with multiple options for the paint-scheme. From memory, I think they're USAF (in Vietnam), South Vietnamese Air Force or United States Air National Guard, all of which come with plenty of decals. Good: High detail inside and out, good fit of parts, multiple paint scheme options, interesting subject matter Bad: Can't think of anything!

"Another nice Academy kit"
johniandreseniii
Great looking kit. Nice details and plenty of options.

 
"Bad academy kit"
edwardgr77
A bad kit for me, it has very poor details and fit problems, it needs a lot of putty. Better buy a hasegawa version.

 
"One of my favorite builds so far"
CJ (Colorado)
This is a great little kit. Although not the most popular subject, Academy did a wonderful job here. Lots of options with this kit, especially with armament. Instructions were fairly clear, decals were fine, nothing extraordinary but good. Being 1/72, I recommend being very careful with some of the smaller parts, as they can be quite fragile. One of my favorite builds I've completed so far, even though I only got it as a test bed for a Vietnam era C-130 I was making.
