Description :

Desktop model of some kind of aerospace element. We aren’t sure what this is a model of – perhaps a missile? We couldn’t find anything even close to this with an internet search, so you specialists out there will have to find this one on your own. It’s quite small with the “MATRA” logo on the base which supports the model on a single Lucite pillar. The model itself is white plastic with black sections/trims. We aren’t sure whether it is complete – sorry to be so vague but this one is beyond our pay grade! Measures approx. 3.75 H x 5” L x 1.75” W. Note small scrape at rear of fuselage on last photo.

UPDATE: Many thanks to one of our expert bidders who sent us the following information on this item: "The MATRA model was a French-made under-the-wing mounted rocket launcher for fighter aircraft."
