Inspired by the legendary A-10 Warthog, celebrated for its Gatling gun-style 30 mm cannon and titanium armor, Retro51 introduces the Tornado™ warbird, embodying its rugged durability.
In service for 50 years, the A-10 Warthog remains a favored military aircraft for its close air support capabilities and robust "titanium bathtub" shielding, crucial in protecting pilots from ground attacks while delivering a powerful attack of its own. Pilots and crew are integral to its success, dedicated to aiding ground troops and bravely engaging and defending their fellow soldiers.
The Tornado™ Rollerball pays homage to this powerhouse aircraft, featuring tactile rivets, panels, and twin-turbo fan acid-etched in the barrel and accentuated with printed wing emblems and the fierce warthog face near the nose of the pen. Each pen boasts black nickel finish accents reminiscent of its nose-mounted gun that is also represented on the finial. Each one is packaged in a graphic tube adorned with an A-10 illustration, making it an ideal gift for aviation and history enthusiasts alike. Command attention with the A-10 Warthog rollerball pen — where strength meets style!
