TAMIYA 1/48 Lockheed Martin® F-35®A Lightning Ⅱ®

1/48 Lockheed Martin® F-35®A Lightning II®Here is an outstanding entrance into the legendary 1/48 Aircraft Series: this time, the A variant of the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II. The F-35 - variant A for the Air Force, B for the Marines and C for the Navy - was developed under the Joint Strike Fighter Program (JSF), and is seen as one of the fifth generation fighters. 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.
