These are plastic model sets that require assembly and painting. They do not contain paints and glues unless otherwise stated.
This model kit recreates the state-of-the-art F-35B Lightning II in easy to manage and display 1/72 scale.
It inherits many of the detailed features first seen in our 1/48 scale release.
Thanks to extensive research of the full-size subject, the B variant of the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II model is poised to be the definitive model in 1/72 scale!
About the F-35B Lightning II
Developed under the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program , the F-35 integrates multiple functions into its design and there are three types: the F-35A conventional takeoff and landing (CTOL) aircraft, the F-35B short takeoff, vertical landing (STOVL), and the F-35C carrier takeoff and landing (CV).
The F-35B was developed as a successor of the AV- 8B Harrier II.
The F-35B is recognized as the aircraft which accomplished both supersonic flight and STOVL by the 3-bearing engine duct nozzle and lift fan, and following the F-35A, the F-35B deployment started in 2015.
The first F-35B to see action was an aircraft belonging to the U.S. Marine Corps VMFA-211 “Wake Island Avengers” in Afghanistan, in September 2018.
Not only the U.S. and the U.K. but also Italy employs the F-35B. The Japan Air Self-Defense Force also plans to launch a new fighter squadron with the F-35B from 2024 onward.
As the F-35B can be operated from both aircraft carriers and airfields featuring short runways, many countries are considering its deployment, and the F-35B looks set to become a significant presence in the skies across the world.
• 1/72 scale plastic model assembly kit. Wingspan: 148mm, fuselage length: 215mm.
• The kit recreates the vertical landing and can be assembled in two ways; landed or hovering and ensures superior assembly with dedicated angled door parts.
• The parts faithfully depict a hovering aircraft with downward engine nozzle and opened doors.
• Features realistic renderings of half-open two inner weapon bay doors and interior details such as ribs and pipes.
• The nose landing gear and main landing gear can be depicted as extended (for hovering) or retracted (for landing).
• The lift fan is integrated with nose landing gear bay, and the variable vane underneath is recreated in detail.
• Shorter than on the F-35A, the engine nozzle is recreated by a single part.
• The 3BSM (3 Bearing Swivel Module) is faithfully recreated with a dedicated parts breakdown for this kit.
• RAM (Radar Absorbent Material) are molded into fuselage surfaces.
• Clear parts recreate canopy and EOTS fairing under the nose.
• Includes parts for AIM-9X Sidewinder x2 and AIM-120C AMRAAM x2.
• Y-shaped air intake duct for highly advanced stealth characteristics.
• Detailed cockpit, landing gear bays and roll posts.
• Martin-Baker US16E ejection seat.
• RCS (radar cross section) enhancers affixed to top and bottom sections during basic training exercises.
• One pilot figure with the helmet mounted display (HMD).
• A stand is included to use if you are making a hovering model.
• Comes with 5 marking options from a total of three countries (United States Marine Corps, Royal Air Force, Italian Navy).
• Includes masking stickers and a painting guide.
