This is the Tamiya 1/48 Lockheed Martin F-35 A Lightning II Model Airplane Kit. Designed after the most technologically advanced modern fighter on the planet. Tamiya has spend countless hours recreating scale details on this aircraft to give you a scale accurate model. These aircraft possess highly advanced stealth characteristics and network connectivity, plus superior situational awareness provided by numerous integrated sensors. The F-35 Lightning II was-first-delivered in 2015, and deployment of over 3,000 F-35s is-planned around the world. Inheriting the Lightning designation from the famed P-38, the F-35 carries on the tradition of air dominance in the foreseeable future.
