For all you sport scale enthusiasts, this one’s for you! The Estes Bull Pup 12D is a highly detailed version of the USAF AGM-12D Bull Pup air to ground missile. First developed in the 1950s, the Bull Pup was used in combat until the 1970s. Over 30,000 Bull Pups were built and used until it was decommissioned in the mid 80s. If you’re just getting started in scale model rockets, the Bull Pup 12D is a great kit to develop your scale model building skills.
This kit comes with a large diameter, single piece body tube, high quality molded plastic tail and nose cone, laser cut wood fins and authentic full color waterslide decals. Standing 15.6 inches tall, this rocket can pack a ballistic punch by reaching 675 feet on Estes standard model rocket engines and recovering with a colorful 12 inch parachute.
