This is the delightful 1975 release of the Entex 1:144 scale
TFX (FB-111) Fighter-Bomber. The kit originally sold for about $1, and was remarkably well detailed with engraved panel lines. Panel lines were accented using a black ink pen.
The decals had long ago become dust, so were replaced by decals from the IPMS Ottawa decal bank.
The actual aircraft was used to carry nuclear weapons for both Strategic Air Command (SAC) and Tactical Air Command (TAC) of the US Air Force. The aircraft was also used by the RAAF of Australia.
