Tamiya 60793 1/72 Lockheed Martin® F-35®B Lightning II®
Following the releases of Items 61124 (1/48 F-35A), 60792 (1/72 F-35A) and 61125 (1/48 F-35B), we are proud to announce Item 60793 (1/72 F-35B) as a new addition to our F-35 Lightning II series! Inheriting the very detailed depictions from Item 61125, this kit focuses on the recreation of the vertical landing. Modelers can choose from two assembly types; landed or hovering. Although this is an F-35 like Item 60792, over 60% parts are newly designed for this kit.
About the Model
This is a 1/72 scale plastic model assembly kit. Wingspan: 148mm, fuselage length: 215mm.
The distinctive F-35B design featuring both highly advanced stealth characteristics and STOVL is authentically captured in style, with ergonomic parts breakdown.
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. (Please refer to the table on the next page.)
Features realistic renderings of half-open two inner weapon bay doors and interior details such as ribs and pipes.
Nose landing gear and main landing gear can be depicted as extended (for hovering) or retracted (for landed).
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 succinctly yet faithfully recreated with a dedicated parts breakdown for this kit.
Fine recreations of 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.
This kit also features realistic renderings of the following sections:
- Y-shaped air intake duct for highly advanced stealth characteristics
- Details such as 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.
