RAWTAG #07: FMA PUCARA. (A-511)
This is the awesome RAWTAG PUCARA Deluxe package.
One of the most famous air to air skirmishes of the Falklands War was between a Sea Harrier flown by Royal Navy Commander Nigel ‘Sharkey’ Ward and Argentinian Pucara pilot Carlos Tomba. With the Sea Harrier chasing the Pucara at ultra low level across the wild terrain, Sharkey scored a ‘Kill’ bringing the Pucara down, Tomba ejecting at the last seconds to survive with minor injuries!
Classic dogfighting taking place in the 1980’s.
These incredible tags have been produced from the rudder trim recovered from the downed Pucara and were presented in RAWTAG’s first deluxe box. A new concept amongst tag producers.
‘Sharkey’ is still very much alive in 2024 and was delighted to support this project, agreeing to personally sign a card for each box.
This package is limited to just 40 pieces and contains the following:
1 x Pucara tag A-511 with individually numbered backing card.
1 x PERSONALLY SIGNED and individually numbered ‘Sharkey’ Ward picture card.
1 x Carlos Tomba dedication card.
1 x Specially produced presentation box.
