ACA1622 - Academy 1/48 Mirage III C

The Mirage III C (Academy 1622) is a 1/48 scale model of the legendary French supersonic interceptor developed by Dassault Aviation during the late 1950s. As the first production version of the Mirage III family, the Mirage IIIC was designed as a high-speed, Mach 2-capable delta-wing fighter intended to provide the French Air Force with a modern all-weather interception capability. It also became widely exported and served with numerous air forces worldwide, making it one of the most influential European fighters of the Cold War era.

Academy’s kit represents this classic delta-wing aircraft with finely engraved surface detail, a straightforward cockpit layout, and optional external stores. It is a well-known early-generation tooling that offers an accessible build of this iconic aircraft in 1/48 scale.
