1/72 Hasegawa F-35 Lightning II (B Version) `U.S. Marine´ 01576

From the latest 5th-generation stealth fighter F-35, the B variant—capable of Short Takeoff and Vertical Landing (STOVL)—is now available as a plastic model kit.

• The upper/lower lift fan doors and engine bay doors can be built in open or closed position.
• Landing gear can be assembled in either in-flight or parked (on-ground) configuration.
• The exhaust nozzle is designed to be removable and movable, replicating the rotating mechanism of the real aircraft, allowing you to recreate the takeoff position (short takeoff).
• Flaperons, horizontal stabilizers, and vertical stabilizers are molded as one piece using sliding molds, delivering crisp and detailed features.
• Includes one seated pilot figure wearing the latest helmet, and a display stand for showcasing the model.
• Box art illustration by Tankurou Katou.
