Overview

Bring on the Beauty and the Beast! For all model rocket enthusiasts out there that enjoy building and launching scale rockets, the Estes D-Region Tomahawk is for you! This authentic rocket is a 1/5 scale of NASA's sounding rocket. Launched only one time in 1968, this rocket was designed to take measurements of the D-layer of the ionosphere - thus its name. Our version of this fantastic scale rocket captures all the detail of the original in an easy to assemble model that flies as good as it looks.

In terms of performance, this gigantic rocket can blast nearly 800 feet (244 m) high when powered with our E engine. If you don't want to test the limits of your visibility, we've included an adapter to launch on Estes D engines. Finally, to protect this beautiful scale model when it lands, we've included a 24 inch (61 cm) preassembled nylon parachute!

Building supplies, finishing supplies, Estes engines and launch equipment required - sold separately. Requires a 3/16 inch (5 mm) Maxi Rod - sold separately. Recommended for ages 18 and up with adult supervision for those under 18. Get in touch with your inner astronaut today!
