Product introduction 1/72 scale plastic model. The current Blue Impulse began on October 19, 1958, when three F-86Fs performed aerobatics at an air festival held at Hamamatsu Kita Air Base. On April 16, 1960, the Japan Air Self-Defense Force established the Air Mobility Research Group at Hamamatsu Air Base's 1st Air Wing, creating an aerobatic team using the F-86F Saber under the name Tenryu. This team, which used the F-86F, later changed its name to Blue Impulse, which used the call sign Impulse Blue, and became famous around the world by depicting the Olympic Games and the World's Fair EXPO70 in the air. . After this, I performed many aerobatic flights all over Japan, but from the 1982 season, I replaced the aging F-86F with the domestic jet trainer T-2. The T-2's speedy aerobatic flight attracted many fans. The Blue Impulse team, which has been using the F-86F and T-2, has changed to the latest domestic jet trainer T-4 since the 1996 season. The T-4, which is capable of aerial maneuverability comparable to that of the F-15, presents us as an audience with even more advanced and exciting performances.
