Product details

JC Wings A-10A 77-0205 Chopper Popper

This 1:144 JC Wings model represents Fairchild Republic A-10A Thunderbolt II serial 77-0205, known as Chopper Popper, during Operation Desert Storm in 1991. The aircraft was assigned to the Air Force Reserve’s 706th Tactical Fighter Squadron, 926th Tactical Fighter Group, and was flown by Capt. Robert Swain Jr. when he scored the A-10’s first air-to-air victory.

Many retail feeds combine the 706th squadron with the 23rd TFW. Official Air Force Reserve history identifies Swain and the 706th TFS with the 926th TFG, so Muncle Mikes uses the corrected unit identity. Use serial 77-0205, Chopper Popper markings, item JCW-144-A10-001 and all five exact images to confirm the release.

Why these products?

We match the recorded product type, hobby, scale, maker and casting where those details are available. Explicitly selected items come first. Custom builds, loose cars, DIY kits and parts stay in their own lanes. Matching scale or brand alone does not prove compatibility.

Prices and availability are confirmed at checkout.
