Whether you served in a tactical surveillance company or simply admire Cold War-era aviation, this tail flash serves as a lasting symbol of technical innovation and aerial reconnaissance excellence.
Expert Craftsmanship and Authentic Detail
Each OV-1 Mohawk tail flash is meticulously carved from solid mahogany, ensuring a durable and high-quality finish that stands the test of time. Our artisans replicate the specific tail geometry of the Mohawk, featuring the iconic triple-vertical stabilizer design. The plaque is hand-painted with high-gloss automotive-grade finishes, ensuring that the colors—from the classic olive drab to specific unit markings—remain vibrant and accurate. Every detail, including squadron insignias and bureau numbers, is applied with precision to mirror the actual aircraft flown in theater.
