Estes 3027 Satellite Interceptor Flying Model Rocket Kit
Estes has gone back to the archives, pulled up old drawings and spec sheets and brought these fantastic flying machines back for old and new rocketeers to enjoy. Each kit has been faithfully reproduced and updated while still retaining the classic lines of the original. In terms of the kit quality, not much has changed since they were first seen on the market over 20 and 30 years ago. While we cannot turn back the hands of time, we can once again enjoy many of these wonderful models and capture a little of our youth in the process. Envisioned by designers to be operational by 1990, this ultra-sophisticated interceptor patrols near-space for possible aggression by hostile satellites. Highly advanced defense systems include both nuclear and laser armaments. Kti features include laser-cut fins, balsa nose cone and paper wrapped exhaust tubes, quick release engine mount, realistic two-color decals and 12" parachute.
