France had already selected the Brequet 1221 design, which, along with the Rolls-Royce\/Turbomeca Adour engine, formed the foundation of the Jaguar. Design responsibilities were shared between Brequet Aviation and the British Aircraft Corporation, leading to the formation of the joint company SEPECAT to manage production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px;\"\u003eThe initial two-seat Jaguar trainer took to the skies in September 1968, followed by the first single-seater in March 1969. The RAF received its first GR.1 aircraft for operational use with 54 Squadron in March 1974, while the French Air Force introduced the type earlier in June 1973. The RAF's GR.1 was a single-seat, all-weather strike and ground attack fighter equipped with NAVWASS (navigating and weapons aiming sub-system), allowing it to engage targets without radar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px;\"\u003ePrimarily stationed in Germany, RAF Jaguars were used for rapid deployment and regional reinforcement, with some tasked with tactical nuclear strike missions carrying the WE177 bomb. Enhanced GR.1A Jaguars participated in the 1990 Gulf War, completing 612 combat missions without any losses. The last Jaguars were withdrawn from RAF service in April 2007.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\"\u003eBAE SYSTEMS is a registered trademark of BAE Systems plc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px;\"\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px;\"\u003ePlastic model kit, instruction sheet, paint layout sheet and decals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Sale:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Unit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAssembly Status:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unassembled Kit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMPN:\u003c\/strong\u003e A11011\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1:48\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSet Includes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aircraft\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSubject:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jaguar\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCustomised:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Airfix\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aircraft\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTheme:\u003c\/strong\u003e Militaria\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not Painted\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e United Kingdom\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Airfix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55102404034901,"sku":"A11010","price":54.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/0804\/2069\/files\/57_c2408765-861f-422e-a966-d6b11c2e8b6f.jpg?v=1790263174","url":"https:\/\/the-gift-factory.co.uk\/products\/airfix-1-48-sepecat-jaguar-gr-1-gr-1a-aircraft-scale-model-kit-a11010","provider":"The Gift factory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
