ACE-26P – Lt. Frank Luke Jr.
American fighter pilot Frank Luke Jr. earned an extraordinary reputation during his remarkably brief combat career in the closing months of the First World War. Known as the “Arizona Balloon Buster,” Luke specialised in attacking German observation balloons – large, well-defended targets that were extremely dangerous to approach.
Serving with the 27th Aero Squadron, Luke was credited with 18 aerial victories, most of them observation balloons. His final mission on 29 September 1918 became legendary, and he was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.
ACE-26P – Lt. Frank Luke Jr. represents one of the most daring personalities of America’s early military aviation history.
The Military Workshop is proud to offer this John Jenkins personality figure honouring the remarkable young American ace remembered as the “Arizona Balloon Buster.”
