Description :
Heavy desktop model of a Rocket-Powered Drone for the US Navy Radioplane in metal. From Danish maker FERMO - known for its high quality cast models. This is a very unique desk model - both the base and the drone are solid metal; it has quite a bit of heft (313 grams) for such a small piece! With US Navy insignia in red, white, and blue on the drone and tail marking "RP-78". Drone is removeable from base pin mounting. Base has engraved plate label & felt pad. We believe this is from the early 1960s. In great condition except for small paint chips as shown in last photos. Shipping available only through Fed Ex Pack & Ship For more on this & similar drones: https://www.designation-systems.net/dusrm/m-38.html
